TRANS/AIR COMPRESSOR MOUNT KIT
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Trans/Air Manufacturing is recalling Compressor Mount Kits with specific part numbers that were installed between June 1, 2010 and June 15, 2013 on Ford vehicles with 5.4 or 6.8 liter engines. The spring clamp on the heater hose at the front of the intake manifold may pinch the alternator harness between itself and the compressor mounting bracket, creating two potential hazards: the charging system could fail and cause the vehicle to stall while driving, and the pinched wires could short circuit and cause a fire.
Trans/Air will notify owners and dealers will repair the vehicles at no charge by inspecting them, correcting the clamp installation, and repairing the alternator harness as needed. The recall began in October 2013. Affected consumers should contact Trans/Air at 1-800-673-2446 and reference recall number 13-002.
