The two 0.5 by 1.5 inch tubes that the liquified petroleum tank IS bolted to are subject to failure at the weld between the tube ends and the subfloor structure. Inadequate mounting could make it possible for the tank to separate from the…
Under certain conditions, the rear brakes could lock up without prior warning during high deceleration braking. The problem may be caused by defective proportioner valves in the braking system.
Inadequate weld positioning coupled with radius rod load and loosening of the spring clip nuts could cause spring seat fracture. This can result in loss of directional control of the axle.
The stop lamp switches installed on the subject vehicles may have inadequate internal switch contact pressure due to an incorrect formation of the switch contact terminals. This lack of switch contact continuity may render the (stop) brake…

Two types of firestone tire rim bases and matching side rings were in use. During installation, tire rim bases and side rings may not have been correctly matched.
A protective metal cover was omitted from the speed control unit. Without this cover, a bead chain which connects the throttle linkage to the servo assembly could become entangled in the linkage or other engine components. If the chain…
Chassis on the involved buses were labeled incorrectly with a gvwr of 10,000 pounds that does not meet the requirements of federal regulation part 567.4(g). This states that the gvwr should not be less than the sum of the unloaded vehicle…
