Campaigns on record across the Ford Police-Vehicle (1979), from Transport Canada and, tagged NHTSA, the United States. Pick a model year for the Canadian listing, and check your VIN with Ford to confirm which apply.
THE INVOLVED VEHICLES WERE PRODUCED WITH FRAMES THAT MAY HAVE INADEQUATELY WELDED #2 CROSSMEMBER ASSEMBLIES. THIS COULD OCCUR IF CERTAIN MANUAL WELD OPERATIONS WERE NOT PERFORMED DURING FRAME FABRICATION. SEVERE OPERATING CONDITIONS WHICH MAY OCCUR IN POLICE DUTY, MAY CAUSE CRACKING AROUND THE GUSSET, ALLOWING IT TO SEPARATE FROM THE FRAME.
DEALER WILL INSPECT AND, IF NECESSARY, REWELD THE MANUAL WELD AREAS ON THE #2 CROSSMEMBER ASSEMBLY.
