Reported: 1978-10-25 (October 25, 1978)
THE BRAKE SHOE WELDS ON THE REAR BRAKE ASSEMBLIES COULD FAIL AT THE POINT WHERE THE WELD JOINS THE BRAKE SHOE TABLE. A BROKEN WELD COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF BRAKING CAPABILITY.

NHTSA campaign record ↗80V069000 · Suspension:Rear
Reported: 1980-05-28 (May 28, 1980)
THE BOLTS THAT CLAMP THE MOR/RYDE SUSPENSION BEAM AND LOWER MOUNTING PLATE TO THE AXLE MAY BREAK AS A RESULT OF MISALIGNMENT OF THE BOLTS DUE TO NON-PARALLEL SURFACES OF THE UPPER BEAM PLATE AND THE LOWER BOTTOM PLATE. ANOTHER CONTRIBUTING FACTOR IS THE ABSENCE OF SHEAR BLOCKS TO THE UPPER SPACER PAD.
Remedy: MANUFACTURER WILL INSTALL NEW MOR/RYDE BEAM ASSEMBLIES, LOWER MOUNTING PLATES, BOLTS, NUTS AND WASHERS.
