Plain-English summary
All Wheel Drive Equipment Mfg., Inc. is recalling certain 2011-2012 Ford F-550 Super Duty chassis vehicles. These specific vehicles are equipped with a 6.8L gasoline engine, have been modified by All Wheel, and feature certain Muncie Power Products PTO Assemblies.
The recall addresses a defect where oil may leak from the PTO pressure switch onto a thermal blanket covering the exhaust system. If the leaking oil soaks into the thermal blanket, the combination of the oil and exhaust heat may result in an increased risk of fire.
