2003 Crane Coe

Component

Service Brakes, Air:Slack Adjusters:Automatic

Consequence of Defect

on certain trailers equipped with a specific combination of reyco suspension, eaton drive axle, and bendix slack adjusters, the failure of a drive axle slack adjuster to automatically adjust as required to compensate for brake wear, will cause an out of adjustment condition. if this condition occurs and is not identified and corrected through normal inspections and maintenance, the slack adjuster will over-rotate and may contact the suspension lower spring saddle.

Corrective Action

if this occurs, braking performance will be inhibited, increasing the risk of a crash without warning.

Recall Notes

crane carrier will supply, at no charge, gunite slack adjusters and installation instructions to replace the existing bendix slack adjusters on the drive axle. the installing facility will be reimbursed by crane for one (1) hour labor per vehicle at their posted labor rate. owner notification began on june 10, 2003. owners should contact crane at 1-918-832-7305.

Component

Equipment:Other:Labels

Consequence of Defect

on certain tag and pusher axle assemblies purchased from ridewell, the axle assemblies have an actual weight rating less than that specified on the label and therefore fail to comply with the requirements of part 567.5, "certification."

Corrective Action

loading the tag/pusher axle to the gawr label rating or loading the vehicle to the gvwr label rating will cause the pusher/tag axle to be overloaded.

Recall Notes

Vehicle Speed Control

Consequence of Defect

on certain heavy duty trucks equipped with cummins c8.3g and l10g electronic control modules (ecm), the ecm does not have the ability to detect a throttle fail-safe engine shutdown command. this could result in an unanticipated, uncommanded open throttle condition without warning.

Corrective Action

if this event occurs, the vehicle operator will not have control of the engine speed, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.

Recall Notes

cummins will notify the customers and replace the ecm. owners should contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or crane carrier at 1-918-836-1651.
