Recall history
2 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.
84V120000 · Service Brakes, Air:Supply:Check Valve
Reported: 1984-10-02 (October 2, 1984) · Model years: 1983
THE DUAL AIR RESERVOIRS OF SOME TRUCKS WERE EQUIPPED WITH CARBON STEEL SPRINGS INSTEAD OF STAINLESS STEEL SPRINGS, AS INTENDED. THE CARBON STEEL SPRING IS MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO RUSTING THAN THE STAINLESS STEEL SPRING. THIS RUSTING COULD CAUSE THE CHECK VALVE TO FAIL, CAUSING TOTAL LOSS OF FRONT AND REAR BRAKES.
Remedy: THE AIR TANK WILL BE INSPECTED AND, IF NECESSARY, THE AIR VALVE WILL BE REPLACED WITH ONE CONTAINING A STAINLESS STEEL SPRING.
NHTSA campaign record ↗94V028000 · Steering:Gear Box (Other Than Rack And Pinion)
Reported: 1994-01-08 (January 8, 1994) · Model years: 1993
THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT WAS ASSEMBLED WITH LOOSE OR MISSING UPPER AND LOWER PINCH BOLTS WHICH MAY CAUSE SEPARATION OF THE SHAFT.
Consequence: SEPARATION OF THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT RESULTS IN TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL PROPERLY TORQUE LOOSE PINCH BOLTS AND INSTALL PINCH BOLTS WHERE NECESSARY.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
1983: 0 complaints · 1993: 1 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |

Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
