Component: Service Brakes, Hydraulic > Foundation Components > Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings
Manufacturer: Dabryan Coach Builders
Description:
Improper installation of the rear brake line at the point at which the extended brake line first bends and extends over the left rear wheel area of the frame. if not installed with sufficient clearance, chafing of the brake line can occur in an area adjacent to the rear floor pan.
Consequencs:
The rear brake line can leak or rupture resulting in reduced braking capability, loss of rear brakes, and/or loss of brake fluid reserves in the master brake cylinder.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect the brake line for proper installation and/or damage and replace as necessary. also a protective boot or sleeve over the brake line will be installed.

Date: 09.08.1994
Component: Service Brakes, Hydraulic > Foundation Components
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
The nuts and bolts that attach the rear brake adaptor to the axle housing flange can loosen and eventually separate. if one or more of the nuts come off the bolts, damage to the parking brake assembly or to the antilock brake system (abs) sensor and sensor ring (if so equipped) will occur. if all four nuts on one end of the axle come off the bolts, damage to the brake hydraulic line or the parking brake cable can occur.
Consequencs:
Occurrence of any of these conditions can result in a loss of braking capability and possible accident.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect and, if needed, install new bolts. if any of the fasteners are disconnected, the parking brake and abs components will be inspected and serviced.

Component: Fuel System, Gasoline > Storage > Tank Assembly > Filler Pipe And Cap
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
The seal material between the fuel filler pipe and fuel tank may not have been fully cured during the molding process which could allow for fuel leakage.
Consequencs:
Fuel leakage could result in a vehicle fire if an ignition source were present.
Notes:
Dealers will replace the fuel filler pipe-to-fuel tank seal with a new seal of different material.

Component: Service Brakes, Hydraulic > Pedals And Linkages
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
The brake pedal push rod retainer (hairpin clip) may be missing or not properly installed on the service brake pedal. this can cause disengagement of the brake pushrod and loss of braking ability.
Consequencs:
Loss of braking ability can result in a vehicle accident.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the retainer.

Component: Steering > Linkages
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
The pitman arms were not fully lubricated at the assembly plant. the "ball joint" at the outer end of the pitman arm can become contaminated and corrode.
Consequencs:
Such corrosion can result in abnormal wear of the joint, resulting in separation of the joint. loss of steering control can occur increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect the vehicles and if the joint is found to have significant wear, the arm will be replaced. those pitman arms not replaced will have the "ball joint" fully greased.
