Campaign # Reported Description Affected Vehicles
14V231000 5/2/2014

High resistance may cause the board to overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

14V230000 5/2/2014

If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.

14V229000 5/2/2014

If the lug nut becomes loose from not being properly tightened, it may fall off, allowing the other lug nuts to become loose, possibly resulting in a wheel separation, and increasing the risk of a crash.

14V228000 5/1/2014

If the cable does not clear the wheel chair lift it may contact the power lug and if it does not have a nonconductive cover, or it has an improperly installed non-conductive cover, then a short circuit may occur that could result in a fire.

14V227000 5/1/2014

Engine seizure may cause the operator to lose control of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.

14V226000 4/30/2014

If the cable does not clear the wheel chair lift it may contact the power lug and if it does not have a nonconductive cover, or it has an improperly installed non-conductive cover, then a short circuit may occur that could result in a fire.

14V225000 4/29/2014

If the tank discharges gasoline in the presence of an ignition source there is an increased risk of a fire.

14V224000 4/30/2014

If the transmission shift cable fractures while the vehicle is being driven, the transmission gear selection may not match the indicated gear and the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Furthermore, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, despite selecting the ‘PARK’ position, the transmission may not be in ‘PARK.’ If the vehicle is not in the "PARK" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.

14V223000 4/30/2014

An inaccurate fuel gauge may result in the vehicle unexpectedly running out of fuel and stalling, increasing the risk of a crash.

14V222000 4/25/2014

If the terminals corrode, there may be an intermittent electrical connection and possibly cause disruption or loss of the J1939 communication, resulting in interruptions of the engine, transmission, ABS and body controllers, increasing the risk of a crash.

14V221000 4/24/2014

Bearing failure may lead to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

14V220000 4/23/2014

If the trailer is loaded to the specifications listed on the label, tire failure may result, increasing the risk of a crash.

14V218000 4/28/2014

The incorrect bolts could loosen and fall out resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.

14V217000 4/18/2014

The VIM software may cause the vehicle's brake lights to be illuminated even when the vehicle is not braking and may prevent the vehicle's ability to raise its idle when auxilliary equipment is being used. If the brake lights are illuminated while the vehicle is moving it could make other motorists think the vehicle is stopping/slowing down and increase the risk of a vehicle crash. If the vehicle cannot raise its idle when auxilliary equipment is being used, equipment such as aerial devices, electrical generators and rescue tools may have reduced performance.

14V216000 4/23/2014

A wheelchair occupant may defeat or ride over the insufficiently latched roll stop. If this occurs when the lift platform is in an elevated position, the wheelchair's occupant could fall and sustain injury.
