In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
11 safety recall campaigns, 1 defect investigation.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
A short circuit increases the risk of a fire.
If the fuel hose detaches a fuel leak may result, increasing the risk of a fire.
Rust or corrosion will result in swelling of the shims causing an increased brake pedal stroke. The extra brake travel may lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
A timing chain bolt that was not properly tightened may result in an engine oil leak, possibly causing the engine to seize, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the hose bursts, the ATF would leak out. Once a significant amount of fluid is lost, the transmission may become inoperative, increasing the risk of a crash.
Two 2013 MITSUBISHI FUSO FEC92s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
