Recall History (13 recalls)
SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:CONTROLS:FOOT CONTROL/VALVE
FOREIGN MATERIAL MAY COLLECT UNDER THE BALANCE BEAM OF THE TREADLE VALVE. IF DEBRIS IS ALLOWED TO COLLECT AND REMAIN UNDER THE BALANCE BEAM, COMPLETE ACTUATION OF THE TREADLE VALVE MAY BE IMPAIRED. THIS COULD LEAD TO BRAKE FAILURE.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE UNDERFLOOR WIRE CONDUIT ATTACHING HANGER ASSEMBLY MAY FATIGUE AND BREAK UNDER CERTAIN OPERATING ROAD CONDITIONS. BREAKING OF THIS ASSEMBLY ALLOWS THE WIRING CONDUIT TO MOVE FREELY AT THE UNSUPPORTED END. THIS MOVEMENT COULD CAUSE CHAFING OF THE MAIN POWER CABLES, CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CIRCUIT. THE WIRE CONDUIT MAY ALSO IMPACT ON THE REAR SUSPENSION "U" BOLT ATTACHMENT.
SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
THE NYLON HOSE THAT CONNECTS THE QUICK RELEASE VALVE AND THE ANCHOR COUPLING AT THE REAR OF THE FRONT AXLE WAS FOUND TO BE EXCESSIVELY LONG. WHEN THE BUS EXECUTES EXTREME RIGHT AND LEFT TURNS, THE CURBSIDE NYLON BRAKE HOSE INTERFERES WITH THE TIRE. THIS INTERMITTENT INTERFERENCE WILL CAUSE THE NYLON HOSE TO CHAFE AND ULTIMATELY FAIL.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:FRONT UNDERHOOD
THE ALTERNATING CURRENT POWER WIRE, WHICH SUPPLIES POWER TO THE CONDENSER FAN MOTORS, MAY HAVE BEEN GROUNDED BY CHAFING OF THE INSULATION AGAINST THE CABLE CLAMP AND CLAMP CONTACT OF THE TRANSMISSION OIL FILTER FLEXLINE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE CONDENSER FAN MOTOR WIRE TO OVERHEAT.
STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THE INVOLVED VEHICLES DO NOT CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 206, "DOOR LOCKS AND DOOR RETENSION COMPONENTS". THE EXTENSION SPRING THAT ATTACHES THE SPRING BRACKET TO THE VALVE ARM AT THE FRONT DOOR ENTRANCE ENGINE ASSEMBLY MAY NOT MAINTAIN THE DOOR IN AN OPEN POSITION WHEN THE EMERGENCY "T" HANDLE IS PULLED. THIS ALLOWS THE EXTENSION SPRING TO RETRACT AND THE DOOR TO CLOSE WHEN THE "T" HANDLE IS RELEASED.
