For scale, 4,436 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 3 years and 9 months.
Defect
On the engines of vehicles fitted with an auxiliary generator, the mounting strength of the idler pulley bracket for the generator drive belt is insufficient. Belt tension and generator drive forces cause wear at the mating surface between the idler pulley mounting bracket and the generator bracket. Continued use in this condition may cause the bracket mounting bolts to fracture. In the worst case, the pulley and bracket may detach and fall onto the roadway, creating a hazard to other traffic.
Corrective action
Replace the idler pulley mounting bracket and the generator bracket on all affected vehicles with corrected parts.
