Limited data — recalls on file

NCAP overall
2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file. Recall repairs are free at franchised dealers.
Defect
DUE TO AN INTERFERENCE PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT AXLE BRAKE DRUM MOUNTING BOLTS, THE SPARE WHEEL MAY NOT SEAT SECURELY AGAINST THE HUB WHEN PLACED ON THE FRONT AXLE.
Remedy
DEALER WILL REPLACE THE SPARE RIM WITH A RIM OF THE CORRECT DESIGN. THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE CORRECTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Defect
ON SOME VEHICLES, A METAL COMPONENT CALLED A BUSHING, WHICH HOLDS THE MIRROR IN A FIXED POSITION, COULD CRACK OR BREAK DUE TO IMPROPER MACHINING OF THE LOWER MIRROR MOUNTING BRACKET. THIS WOULD ALLOW THE MIRROR TO SLIP FROM THE PROPER POSITION.
The record is thin — 0 NHTSA complaints — so owner-report data can't strongly confirm reliability either way, though 2 recalls should be verified as completed.
Yes — NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns affecting the 1980 Iveco Z100. Recall repairs are free at franchised dealers; check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm the work was done.
