Recall campaigns 6 of 7
16V537000
STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
The cracked frame may reduce the driver's ability to control the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
14V191000
FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
13V495000
PARKING BRAKE
The contact may cause a hole may be worn into the hydraulic brake line which could result in a loss of rear brakes without warning. Loss of rear brakes would result in an increased stopping distance which may cause a crash.
13V453000
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
If the sway bar detaches, it may damage the hydraulic brake lines resulting in reduced braking power. As such, the vehicle would require a longer distance to stop, increasing the risk of a crash.
13V441000
SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM
If a lower control arm breaks, and separates from the mounting bushing, loss of vehicle control could occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
This page is about a model, not a car
Two 2013 SPARTAN MOTORS TRANSIT BUS CHASSIS CABs 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.
