Recall 2008338

The issue

On certain buses, the wheel mounting bolts are susceptible to losing their torque due to an excess of powder coated paint on the mounting points. Loose wheels could have resulted in poor vehicle handling and increased risk of a crash causing personal injuries. Correction: The affected wheels have been removed and replaced with new improved wheels.

Description (français)

Sur certains autobus, les boulons de fixation des roues risquent de se desserrer à cause de la présence d'une trop grande quantité de peinture en poudre sur les points de fixation. Des roues desserrées pourraient avoir rendu la tenue de route du véhicule mauvaise et augmenter les risques d'accident causant des blessures. Correction : Les roues visées ont été enlevées et remplacées par de nouvelles roues améliorées.
