The defect

In the affected buses, the front lower control arm housings may crack, allowing the components to separate.

If the control arm cracks and the components separate, a loss of steering would occur, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The remedy
Temsa will notify owners, and dealers will replace the lower control arms of the front axles, free of charge. The recall began on April 13, 2016. Owners may contact Temsa representative CH Bus Sales at 1-407-271-8935.
