Defect
On container-carrier vehicles equipped with a collapsible rear underrun protection device, the strength design of the underrun protection device is insufficient. Vibration during vehicle operation may cause cracks to develop in the device. Continued use changes the mounting position of the device, causing the vehicle to fail to conform to the Safety Standards for road vehicles.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the cracked member with a reinforced replacement part.
