2005 Ford F750 recalls

Parking brake: driveline, hydraulic

NHTSA campaign 05V415000 · reported September 19, 2005 · FORD MOTOR COMPANY · 6,298 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
On certain medium duty chassis cab vehicles equipped with hydraulic brakes, the drive line park brake anchor bolt may be susceptible to fatigue loading. The bolt could fracture over time due to insufficient clamp load as a result of improper anchor bolt plating.
The risk
If the park brake anchor bolt fatigues and ultimately fractures, the park brake may not function and there may be no indication to the driver of the malfunction when the park brake is set. This may cause the vehicle to roll away without warning, which could result in a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the park brake anchor bolt. The recall began on october 6, 2005. Owners may contact ford at 1-800-392-3673.

Wheels

NHTSA campaign 05V202000 · reported May 4, 2005 · FORD MOTOR COMPANY · 25 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
On certain cab chassis vehicles equipped with accuride aluminum wheels, the wheels were not properly pre-stressed. This allows cracks to develop over time.
The risk
This may eventually lead to wheel failure and possibly result in a vehicle crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the wheels free of charge. The recall began on may 17, 2005. Owners may contact ford at 1-800-392-3673.
