Recall 2015207

The issue

On certain buses built on chassis cabs, the tie rod jam nuts may not have been tightened to specification during a wheel alignment conducted after the installation of the bus body. A loose jam nut could result in vehicle instability increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the tie rod jam nut and tighten to specification as needed.

Description (français)

Sur certains autobus sur châssis-cabine, les contre-écrous de biellette de direction pourraient ne pas avoir été serrés conformément aux spécifications durant un alignement des roues effectué après l'installation de la carrosserie de l'autobus. Un contre-écrou desserré pourrait rendre le véhicule instable, ce qui augmenterait les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter le contre-écrou de biellette de direction et le serrer conformément aux spécifications, au besoin.
