AUGUST
2008 -- Mitsubishi Fuso
is recalling 2,957 MY 2008
FE83D, FE84D, FE85D, and
FG84D trucks. The bolt holes
in the turbocharger bracket,
where the turbocharger is
affixed, were manufactured
with insufficient clearance.
Stress is placed on the
mounting boss when the
bracket is affixed to the
turbocharger, due to
insufficient clearance
between the affixing bolts
and bracket holes. In this
condition, expansion and
contraction of the
turbocharger housing
mounting boss during normal
engine operation may cause
thermal fatigue of the
turbocharger housing. The
turbocharger housing may
crack, releasing exhaust
gases that could cause a
fire. Dealers will replace
the bracket. The recall is
expected to begin on or
about September 30, 2008.
