Visibility › Windshield — Crane · reported 16 Mar 2006 · 17 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
CERTAIN TRUCK CHASSIS CABS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 205, 'GLAZING MATERIALS.' THE WINDSHIELD INSTALLED WAS SOLID TEMPERED GLASS INSTEAD OF THE INTENDED LAMINATED GLASS.
The risk
A FAILURE OF THE TEMPERED GLASS WOULD ALLOW SMALL PIECES OF GLASS TO ENTER THE DRIVER'S COMPARTMENT CAUSING POSSIBLE INJURY TO THE DRIVER AND LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.
The fix
CRANE CARRIER WILL INSPECT THE WINDSHIELD GLASS TO DETERMINE IF IT REQUIRES REPLACEMENT. CRANE WILL THEN LOCATE OR ASSIST IN LOCATING AN AUTOMOTIVE GLASS SPECIALTY SHOP IN THE CUSTOMER'S AREA AND WILL AUTHORIZE THE REPAIR. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 3, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CRANE CARRIER AT 1-918-832-7305.
CUSTOMERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV.
