2000 Crane COE recalls
Recall 08V-049: Service Brakes, Air
Problem: Crane carrier is recalling 672 my 1999-2001 coe,my 1999-2002 ldt, my 2001-2007 ldt2, my 1998-2003 let, and my 2001-2007 let2 refuse cab and chassis for failing to comply with the brake release timing requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 121, "air brake systems." the brake release timing was slower than required.
Risk: This standard specifies performance and equipment requirements for vehicles equipped with air brake systems, including air-over-hydraulic brake systems, to ensure safe braking performance under normal and emergency conditions.
Fix: Crane will replace several fittings and hoses which will increase the air flow and subsequently improve the brake release timing. The recall began on march 14, 2008. Owners may contact crane carrier at 918-832-7305.
Recall 03V-167: Service Brakes, Air
Problem: 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.
Risk: If this occurs, braking performance will be inhibited, increasing the risk of a crash without warning.
Fix: 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.
Recall 02V-231: Equipment
Problem: 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."
Risk: 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.
Fix: Crane will provide owners with replacement vehicle certification labels and installation instructions. Owner notification began october 4, 2002. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact crane at 1-918-832-7333.
