1982 Mack R Series recalls
There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns associated with this vehicle configuration.
Suspension › Rear › Springs › Leaf Spring Assembly
SPRING SEAT CAN DEFORM, WHICH CAUSES A DECREASE IN THE CLAMPING FORCE IN THE SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY. LOSS OF CLAMPING FORCE MAY BRING ABOUT AXLE MISALIGNMENT OR AXLE HOUSING FAILURE.
THE AXLE HOUSING WILL BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED, IF NECESSARY. THE SPRING SEATS WILL ALSO BE REPLACED.
Vehicle Speed Control › Cables
THE ACCELERATOR ROD HOLE CLEARANCE IS NOT ADEQUATE AND CAN CAUSE THE ACCELERATOR LINKAGE TO BIND. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: IF BINDING OCCURS WHILE IN A FULL THROTTLE POSITION, ACCELERATOR CONTROL WOULD BE LOST WITHOUT WARNING AND AN ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR.
ENLARGE THE ACCELERATOR ROD HOLE TO ELIMINATE INTERFERENCE WITHIN ACCELERATOR LINKAGE.
