Defect SummaryFour compression backplate retaining fasteners on the turbo-charger were torqued only hand tight. this allows the fasteners to loosen, and causes oil to leak into the compressor air side of the turbo-charger which, when coupled with the heat precipitated by the compressor and the mixing action of the compressor wheel, can result in an air/oil mixture that fuels the engine.
Consequence SummaryWhen this occurs, engine run-on and subsequent loss of operator control via the normal throttle mechanism can occur, which could result in a vehicle accident.
Corrective SummaryReplace the suspect turbo-charger with a new turbo-charger.

Defect SummaryThese vehicles were built with an improperly plumbed brake system which affects the braking on the rear axle when running either bobtail or pulling a trailer.
Consequence SummaryThis condition can affect the stopping ability of the vehicle because the front steer axle brakes and trailer's brakes would be doing most of the braking. increased stopping distances would be required causing accelerated wear on the steer axle and the trailer brakes.
Corrective SummaryNavistar dealers will inspect vehicles and repair by installing brake lines and fittings as required.

Defect SummaryDuring assembly, the tie rod end nuts were not properly torqued. extremely low torque can allow movement beween the ball stud and the tie rod arm causing damage.
Consequence SummaryThis condition can affect the driver's ability tosteer the vehicle increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
Corrective SummaryDealers will check the torque on the ball studs of the suspect axles and bring the torque up to rockwell's specifications.
NotesSystem: steering; linkages; tie rod; end.vehicle description: medium and heavy duty trucks equipped with rockwell non-driving front axles, models ff-942, ff-961 or fl-941.note: if your vehicle is presented to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and the remedy is not provided free of charge within a reasonable time, please contact navistar at 1-800-448-7825. also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-800-424-9393.

Defect SummaryThe base of the electronic accelerator pedal is made of die cast aluminum. the base mounts directly to the cab firewall. the cab firewall is not rigid enough or flat enough at the mounting surface, causing stress on the accelerator base that will cause the mounting pads on the base of the pedal assembly to fail and totally separate from the firewall.
Consequence SummaryThis can cause loss of speed control, driver distraction, and result in an accident.
Corrective SummaryDealers will inspect the accelerator pedal assembly and install a plate between the accelerator mounting base and the firewall on those units where the base is not broken and has no visible signs of a crack. if the base is broken or cracked, the accelerator assembly will be replaced with a new redesigned accelerator pedal assembly.
