On certain trucks equipped with a MaxxForce 11 or 13 engine, the positive alternator cable may rub against the high pressure power steering hose. Continued contact could wear through the alternator cable's insulation, which could cause an electrical short circuit. An electrical short could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install a bracket to route the alternator wires away from the power steering hose. Note: This recall supersedes recall 2011302.
A failure of this component (electrical) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
On certain vehicles equipped with Bendix ATR-6 Antilock Traction Relay valves, in extremely cold conditions (at or below -18 degrees Celsius), internal ATR valve leakage can occur. This could cause unintended brake application, which could overheat the affected brakes and cause a fire. Also, in certain low traction conditions, unexpected brake application can cause a loss of vehicle control and a crash. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will update the cover assembly on the ATR valves.

Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121 - Air Brake Systems. The trailer Antilock Brake System (ABS) fault indicator lamp may not illuminate if a trailer ABS fault occurs, due to a programming or hardware issue with the brake system electronic control unit. An inoperable trailer ABS fault indicator may prevent the driver from being aware of a trailer ABS fault condition, thereby increasing the risk of a crash resulting in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will reprogram or replace the ABS electronic control unit.
