Defect

On tank trucks, the mounting position of the bracket connecting the tank to the chassis frame is incorrect, causing cracks to develop in the frame near the bracket attachment point. Continued use allows the cracks to propagate. In the worst case, the frame may fracture, rendering the vehicle inoperable.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, inspect the chassis frame for cracks. Where cracks are found, perform repairs and relocate the tank-to-frame connecting bracket to the correct position.
