HOT WHEELS CHEVROLET C3500 CUSTOMISED NO3 1/64

This is a casting which I haven't seen too often over the years hence the small numbers in my collection. Its title suggests it looks heavily customised but thankfully the level it has been altered from factory spec is extremely tame compared to other Hot Wheels models. A recent charity shop gift so unfortunately I have no idea when this recolour actually dates from.

DEFECT #1 - SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:SWITCHES:BRAKE LIGHT


Posted on: 1999-02-08
Description
Vehicle description: pickup trucks, crew cabs, utility trucks and sport utility vehicles.  These vehicles were built with the polarity of the wiring for the zero adjust brake switch reversed from what was specified on the switch drawing.  With the reversed polarity, the contacts in the brake switch can wear out prematurely.  The brake switch will perform normally until the brake switch contacts wear out, resulting in loss of the brake lamps without any warning to the driver.

Consequence
This would fail to warn a following driver that the vehicle is braking and could lead to a crash.

Corrective Action
Dealers will replace the brake switch and reverse the wiring.

Notes
Owner notification began april 12, 1999.owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or gmc at 1-800-462-8782.also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
