- The problem
- On some buses, certain tie rod clamps installed on tie rod assemblies could fail and lead to a steering malfunction.
- The risk
- If both clamps were to fail and the cross tube start to unscrew, significant vehicle misalignment would evolve with the potential for the tie rod end to separate from the cross tube, resulting in loss of steering control and possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
- The fix
- Arvin-meritor will notify gillig customers and conduct the remedy at no charge to the customer. Owners should contact arvin-meritor at 1-248-435-1000 or gillig at 1-510-785-1500.
