The problem
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: HEAVY DUTY TRUCKS. THE SIDE FAIRING HINGE BAR AND MOUNTS CAN DETACH FROM THE FUEL TANK STRAPS. THE HINGE BAR CAN ROTATE AND SEPARATE FROM THE FAIRING, ALLOWING THE HINGE BAR ASSEMBLY TO FALL OFF OF THE VEHICLE.
Risk
THIS COULD CAUSE A ROAD HAZARD, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
What owners should do
DEALERS WILL INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL NUT PLATE AND IF THE BRACKET IS CRACKED, THE FUEL TANK STRAP WILL BE REPLACED WITH A NEW STRAP AND BRACKET ASSEMBLY.
