NHTSA Campaign 99E001000

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:PADS

Issued by FEDERAL MOGUL CORPORATION · Reported Jan 19, 1999 · 37,611 vehicles affected

What's wrong

EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION: AFTERMARKET DISC BRAKE PADS USED AS REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS FOR 1983-1985, 1987-1994 FORD RANGERS, 1984-1985, 1987-1990 BRONCO II, 1986-1997 AEROSTAR MINI VANS, 1991-1994 EXPLORER, AND 1991-1994 MAZDA NAVAJO SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES. THE LOCATING LUGS ON THE STEEL BACK OF THE OUTER BRAKE PAD WERE INCORRECTLY POSITIONED.

Consequence

THE OUTER BRAKE PADS COULD SEPARATE FROM THE CALIPER DURING NORMAL BRAKING, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THESE BRAKE PADS WITH REVISED REPLACEMENT PADS.
