The problem
On certain g4500 motor coaches, the tag axle swing arm can break away.
The risk
If the tag axle swing arm cracks and remains undetected, the cracks can spread and potentially result in a partial or total separation of the tag axle assembly from the coach, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Please note that this campaign has been superseded by 08v121.
