The content of such an MCAI should include, but are not limited to, the following: a) Make, model, and serial numbers of affected civil aeronautical products; b) Description of the unsafe condition, reasons for the mandatory action, and its impact on the overall aircraft and continued operation; c) Description of the cause of the unsafe condition (e.g., stress corrosion, fatigue, design problems, quality control, suspected unapproved part); d) The means by which the unsafe condition was detected and, if resulting from in-service experience, the number of occurrences; and e) Corrective actions and corresponding compliance times, with a list of the relevant manufacturer’s service information including reference number, revision number and date. 2. Issue a revised or superseding MCAI whenever any previously issued MCAI was found incomplete or inadequate to fully correct or properly mitigate the unsafe condition;
