"The contact owns a 2017 Ford F-150. The contact inquired about a recall for brake failure. While driving 40 mph, the contact depressed the brake pedal and it extended to the floorboard. As a result, the contact rear ended another vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed and there were no injuries. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic. The entire front end of the vehicle was damaged and the vehicle was not driveable. The vehicle was towed back to the contact’s residence. The contact filed a complaint with Ford motors and was advised to call NHTSA. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 54,000."
Owners of recalled bikes will be asked to set up an appointment with an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer to install a new secondary actuator piston assembly from the recall kit for free. Notification is expected to start Nov. 5, according to the NHTSA.
I’ll add this to my poor vehicle design category. There are a decent amount of vehicles that you can adjust the mirror to eliminate blind spots. Unfortunately i don’t think this is so much the case with most new cars anymore. Small mirrors, high beltlines, and slivers for windows are creating stupid-large blind spots. It would be great to make vehicles with outward visibility as opposed to some systems to correct for the lack of it.
Harley-Davidson said Tuesday it’s recalling about 238,300 motorcycles, worldwide, for a clutch problem.
In a traditional application for a hydraulic clutch system, a clutch pedal is mounted to the firewall with the clutch master cylinder directly in front of it.

‘C. Refuse to acknowledge that through insurance and public funds we all pay a share of the cost of putting these freedom lovers back together after they fly through their windshield.’ Cute. Something only you have suggested as the only motivating reason to question the cost and effectiveness of trying to wring out that last 0.000005% out of passive safety devices.
I know. I assume the post is an attempted justification because the real reason canât be mentioned.
Second, FCA allegedly designed its clutch systems composed of an aluminum body with a clipped-on plastic base whereas other manufacturers’ slave cylinders are made of a single, solid cast aluminum component which creates a rigid base.
The part of the e-clutch system that lives inside the bellhousing for the transmission would work just like a normal clutch.
