Defect
On 4-axle container-dedicated vehicles, the shape of the upper fenders on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th axles is incorrect, causing rotating components to protrude beyond those fender sections. This configuration does not conform to the standards set forth in Article 18 of the Safety Standards.
Corrective action
Because the required correction varies by vehicle, one or more of the following measures will be applied as needed: (1) A corrected part is added to the 2nd-axle fender to prevent rotating components from protruding, and a spacer is installed at the mounting point of the center side-direction indicator. (2) The length of the right-side underride guard is changed. (3) A spacer is installed at the mounting point of the underride guard.
