STEERING:CRITICAL FASTENERS
Steer axle assembly separation can result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
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.
Steer axle assembly separation can result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
An overheated load center can increase the risk of a fire.
A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
A fractured drive pinion may contact the brake drop hose, and unintentionally engage the parking brake or activate the brake lights, increasing the risk of a crash.
A loss of power to the pump control module can cause a loss of water pressure for fighting fires, increasing the risk of injury.
If the LCD display becomes locked up or non-functional it can delay emergency efforts, which can increase the risk of injury.
Two 2020 SPARTAN FIRE GLADIATORs 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.
