Defect

ElDorado National-California, Inc. (ElDorado) is recalling certain model year 2014 ElDorado National E-Z Rider II and ElDorado National California Axess buses manufactured January 2, 2014, to December 31, 2014. The affected buses have front axles whose tie rod nuts may be improperly torqued.

Safety risk

If the tie rod nuts are not properly torqued, the tie rod may not be adequately secured, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

ElDorado will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tie rod nut torque and replace the parts, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on April 2, 2015. Owners may contact Eldorado customer service at 1-909-591-9557.
