Recalls for Ford E350 1978
Select a Ford E350 1978 recall from the list:
- STEERING : LINKAGES : TIE ROD ASSEMBLY
- on the involved vehicles, the steering tie rod and link assemblies with adjusting sleeve clamps may have been improperly manufactured. the clamps contain a sharp die mark which could cause the clamp to fracture when the clamp bolt is tightened to specifications. the clamp could break and cause separation of the tie rod adjusting sleeves.
- FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE : CARBURETOR SYSTEM
- on the involved vehicles, leakage may occur at the threaded carburetor-to-fuel filter connection on the suspect carburetors. this is due to an improperly machined carburetor fuel inlet connection.
- POWER TRAIN : AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION : LEVER AND LINKAGE : COLUMN SHIFT
- the shift selector reaction springs may be deformed as a result of improper installation of selector levers during column buildup. thus the lever may not be able to be moved into the insert detents located in the steering column assembly. this could prevent the "park" gear from being engaged.
- VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
- some of the involved vehicles may have defective carburetors in which, under certain circumstances, the secondary throttle plates may stick open.
- POWER TRAIN : AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION : LEVER AND LINKAGE : COLUMN SHIFT
- on the involved vehicles, the park actuation support plates are defective due to their susceptibility to cracking due to improper heat treatment during manufacture. as a result, fragments from a broken plate can become lodged in the transmission parking pawl mechanism. this could prevent the transmission parking pawl from engaging when the selector lever is placed in the "park" position, or prevent the pawl from being disengaged from the park gear.
