Prevost H3-41 and 1 more

Reported Feb 15, 20136,120 vehicles affectedPrevost Cars, Inc.Maker’s number SR13-08

The defect

Prevost is recalling certain model year 1993 thru 2013 model H3-40, H3-41, H3-45, and H3-45 VIP Prevost coaches manufactured from December 1993 through February 12, 2013. Under certain conditions, the drag link collar position combined with an over torque of the collar retaining bolt may create a contact with the pitman arm.

The risk

This contact may cause the turnbuckle to fracture without warning. If the drag link turnbuckle breaks while the vehicle is in use, stability and vehicle control may be lost, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Prevost will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace any affected drag link, free of charge. The recall began on April 18, 2013. Owners may contact Prevost at 1-418-883-2888.
