Defect

On fire trucks, the mounting hole position in the flywheel housing used to attach the engine's power steering pump is incorrectly located. As a result, there may be no backlash between the power steering pump gear and the air compressor gear that meshes with it. This causes gear damage and abnormal noise. Continued operation may, in the worst case, fracture the power steering pump shaft, increasing steering effort to a level that does not comply with the applicable Safety Standards.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the power steering pump assembly with a corrected part, and replace the air compressor gear and gear case.
