SAFETY RECALLS
The following are safety recalls issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration:
- Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Western Star 4900 trucks. The front axle weight capacity may exceed the spring capacity. Overloaded springs may result in the front axle separating from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2015-2017 F-150, and 2017 F-250 and F-350 trucks equipped with a crew cab. The left rear infl atable seat belt buckle assembly may be inadequately attached to its mounting bracket. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, “Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.” If the left rear infl atable seat belt buckle separates from its mounting bracket, the seat occupant may not be adequately restrained, increasing their risk of injury.
- Mack Trucks is recalling certain 2016 Pinnacle CHU and CXU diesel trucks equipped with certain Dana steer axles. The castellated nut and cotter pin on the steer axles may not have been properly torqued, allowing the tie rod to loosen within the steer axle. If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Volvo Trucks North America is recalling certain 2016 Volvo VNL and VNM trucks equipped with certain Dana Spicer D-Series and E-Series steer axles. The castellated nut on the steer axles may not be properly torqued, allowing the tie rod to loosen. If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.

Continental ContiTech Announces PVC Product Program
Continental ContiTech is committed to grow our core rubber industrial and hydraulics hose business by providing additional “Smart Solutions Beyond Rubber”. Based on our commitment, we are pleased to announce a multi-million investment in our PVC Product Program to improve our overall product offering, quality and market position. By early 2018, the current PVC hose production in Hannibal, MO will be relocated to a new, state of the art, PVC manufacturing center at our hose production facility in Mt. Pleasant, IA. The relocation involves an investment of new technology and equipment to improve our product offering, efficiencies and production capacity up to 60%.
This investment follows a capital expansion made at the same Mt Pleasant hose production facility to increase rubber hose capacity by 20%, currently up and running as of April 1, 2017. Prior to the transition, stock levels will be increased to minimize impact by utilization of our secondary PVC hose plant in the Americas. We are committed to remain “in the market, for the market” with U.S. and North American manufacturing for our customers and associates and will work towards a seamless transition during this time period.
ContiTech will continue to provide the most extensive and complete Industrial Hose offering in the market along with new innovative, market solutions. We appreciate your continued support and most valued business of Industrial Fluid Solutions. Look for more updates in the upcoming months, furthering our commitment in “Smart Solutions Beyond Rubber.”

Civacon's CivaStar Advanced Overfill Sensor Optimizes Probe Reliability
Civacon, part of OPW, announced the release of CivaStar, the next evolution of advanced overfill prevention. CivaStar's unique design, construction and LED visual verification feature are light years ahead of today's conventional probes. Unlike current probes, CivaStar goes beyond safeguarding against costly overfills. By including an LED-lit tip at the end of each probe, technicians can quickly verify the active status of the probes and the surrounding wires.
"If you deliver fuel, your number one objective is to quickly and safely transport as much as possible to as many customers," said Chris Gooding, Director of Sales and Operations for Civacon. "CivaStar helps you accomplish this by increasing probe reliability and providing real-time status updates."
In addition to its excellent reliability, CivaStar's optic sensor head is easy to install and incredibly accurate. With no need to reset probe heights and pinpoint diagnostics of non-permissive probe readings, technicians spend less time in the garage and drivers spend more time on the road, keeping deliveries on schedule and customers happy.
CivaStar is available for a 2-wire and 5-wire overfill sensor platform and is specifically designed for today's popular straight optic loading racks. Backed by a 5-year warranty, CivaStar is part of Civacon's long-term plans to revolutionize overfill prevention and looks to expand CivaStar to its entire line of overfill systems.
The entire CivaStar line is now available through our website - just type in "Civistar" in our search box or browse directly through the CivaStar product pages.
For more information, please see the CivaStar product sheet and the three CivaStar videos that are available.
