-
Suspension
Vehicle description: transit coaches. The reinforcement brackets were not welded on the tag axle.
Remedy: Dealers will weld the brackets on the tab axle.
-
Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings (service brakes)
Vehicle description: transit buses and bus shells. Some brake line hoses may have been manufactured using heater hose material instead of brake line hose material. Heater hoses are not appropriate for use as brake lines because the operating pressure of the braking system is much higher than that of the heating system.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the heater hoses with correct brake line hoses.
Model years: 1999
