ENG Truck Recall Issued by Frontline
CLEARWATER, FLA.: Frontline Communications has issued a recall
for certain models of its ENG trucks. The recall affects those vehicles built
on the chassis of a Ford E-350 “with an aftermarket rear anti-sway bar and
manufactured from Oct. 31, 2006 through July 12, 2011.”
Frontline said the recalled vehicles may be susceptible to rear hydraulic
brake-line damage if the anti-sway bar frame-mounting bolt threads come in
contact with it.
“If metal-to-metal abrasion occurs, the brake line may eventually rupture and
cause a loss of hydraulic service brake pressure,” the recall stated.
Frontline said it’s notifying owners, and that dealers will repair the affected
vehicles free of charge. It said repairs would be performed by local Ford
dealers and authorized Frontline service facilities. The notification schedule
was not provided, but owners can contact Frontline at 1-727-573-0400. The
recall is posted at the U.S. Department of Transportation
website.
