Manufacturers who determine that a product or piece of original equipment either has a safety defect, or is not in compliance with federal safety standards, are required to notify NHTSA within five business days. NHTSA requires that manufacturers file a defect and noncompliance report as well as quarterly recall status reports, in compliance with Federal Regulation 49 (the National Traffic and Motor Safety Act) Part 573, which identifies the requirements for safety recalls. NHTSA stores this information and the data can be used to search for recall information related to specific NHTSA campaigns and product types.

NHTSA Campaign Number: 78V132
Manufacturer: WHITE MOTOR CORPORATION
Components: SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE
Manufacturer Recall Number:
Potential Number of Units Affected: 39
Consumer Advisory: Do Not Drive: No
Consumer Advisory: Park Outside: No
Summary
THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN BUILT WITH POWER UNIT ANTI-SKID LOGIC MODULES ON TAG AXLE INSTALLATIONS INSTEAD OF THE CORRECT TRAILER TYPE MODULES. SINCE THE TAG AXLE SENSOR OUTPUT IS LESS THAN THAT OF THE POWER UNIT SENSOR, IT REQUIRES THE MORE SENSITIVE TRAILER MODULE. AS SENSOR OUTPUT OVER TIME DROPS BELOW MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS, ONE OF TWO THINGS WILL HAPPEN: (1) THE ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM ON THE TAG AXLE WILL SHUT DOWN AND THE CAB MOUNTED FAULT LAMP WILL LIGHT OR (2) THE SYSTEM WILL BECOME INOPERATIVE WITHOUT ACTIVATING THE FAULT LIGHT. THIS FAILS TO CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 121, "AIR BRAKES".

Manufacturer: WHITE MOTOR CORPORATION
Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V BATTERY:CABLES
Manufacturer Recall Number:
Potential Number of Units Affected: 278
Consumer Advisory: Do Not Drive: No
Consumer Advisory: Park Outside: No
Summary
THE GROUND WIRE FROM THE BATTERY GROUND ON THE ENGINE TO THE FRAME RAIL WAS OMITTED. THIS CONSTITUTES A NON-COMPLIANCE TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT" AND NO. 121, "AIR BRAKES". AN INTERMITTENT LOSS OF ELECTRICAL GROUND AND SUBSEQUENT DIMMING OF THE LIGHTING SYSTEM COMPONENTS OR A POSSIBLE FALSE INDICATION OF ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM FUNCTION IS THE CAUSE FOR THE NON-COMPLIANCE.

NHTSA Campaign Number: 78V130
Manufacturer: SAAB CARS USA, INC.
Components: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Manufacturer Recall Number:
Potential Number of Units Affected: 404
Consumer Advisory: Do Not Drive: No
Consumer Advisory: Park Outside: No
Summary
INSUFFICIENT CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE AIR/FUEL MIXING REGULATOR AND THE THROTTLE HOUSING COULD ALLOW THE DECEL SOLENOID LINK ARM ON THE THROTTLE TO CONTACT THE MIXING REGULATOR UNDER CERTAIN EXTREME DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS WOULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO ROCK TO THE LEFT ON ITS MOUNTING. FULLY DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR WHILE MAKING A SHARP RIGHT TURN AT MODERATE TO HIGH SPEEDS COULD CAUSE SUCH A CONTACT TO OCCUR. FURTHERMORE, MOVEMENT OF THE THROTTLE PLATE MAY MOMENTARILY BE RESTRICTED DURING THE TIME OF CONTACT BETWEEN THE LINK ARM AND MIXING REGULATOR.
