Seat frames do not provide adequate protection in the event of an accident. This constitutes a non compliance to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 222, "school bus seating and crash protection".
Bolt located in rear brake calipers may not be securely fastened. The bolt may come off and braking action could become impaired.
A faulty rim design in which rims have either 8 or 10 slots (depending on rim type) allows bending of the rim under a heavy load.
The defect IS in the wheel rim side ring. The wheel IS made up of a disc and rim assembly, side ring and lock ring. The side ring may have been improperly sized with respect to the other components.
A problem relating to the front exhaust pipe bracket attachment could cause leaking of transmission oil. Transmission could lock up due to lack of proper oil lubrication.
Cracks may develop in the welds that join the power steering unit mounting bracket to the bus front end framing. Eventually, the welds may fail, causing the steering unit to separate from the front end frame.
The nuts which fasten the lower arm balljoint to the steering knuckle may not have been securely tightened.
The fusible link, which protects electrical components connected through the ignition switch, could come open while rear window defogger IS in operation. If twilight sentinel switch IS on and headlight switch IS off, an open link will…
Attaching bolts were mistakenly coated with a slippery material during production. This material will act as a lubricant and bolts may loosen and eventually fall off.
Door lock pillars could develop fatigue cracks from normal usage of door, at the point where door latch striker reinforcements are attached.
The bead chain, which connects the speed control device to the throttle arm of the carburetor, was installed without a cover. Under certain conditions, such as when traveling on an incline, the chain could wrap around the throttle arm and…
Front wheel brake shoes may not have been machined properly. The front wheel compression bar and one of its components, a bushing, along with the brake cable may become damaged and displaced.
Location of hydraulic brake tube to both rear wheels causes interference and chafing between the tubes and rear suspension trailing arm pivot brackets.
The decorative wheel covers may contact the tire sidewalls resulting in damage to the tires.
The left side fuel tank support could become rusty if vehicle IS operated in areas where salt IS used for snow removal. Support may rust entirely through, allowing tank to tilt down on the left side.
Snap pin could interfere with the throttle mechanism. If the accelerator pedal IS heavily depressed, the throttle could become stuck in the open position. Normally, when accelerator pedal IS released, throttle closes and vehicle speed…
A pulley was incorrectly attached to the water pump when the dash air conditioning was installed in the vehicle. This may cause the pully to wobble and the nuts to work loose.
In the event of a short circuit in the instrument panel, the headlamp and interior illumination control switches could overheat.
Spring IS not adequate to support the weight of the bunk which IS installed above the driver/passenger compartment.
The aluminum wheels are equipped with short threaded bolts which will not properly secure a spare steel wheel. Use of this spare could result in loss of the outer wheel without warning.
Anchorage bolt may have been improperly reinstalled after vehicle repair. The bolt could loosen during normal vehicle operation.
Spindle radius IS subject to cracking under a load greater than or equal to the rated capacity of 22,500 lbs. If a large enough crack develops, the spindle could collapse and the wheel assembly could break away from the axle.
Some of the involved vehicles may have been produced with improperly welded fuel tank support straps. Under certain collision conditions, these straps may not be able to support the fuel tank and leaks could develop.
The inner and outer panels of the fiberglass hood could separate during vehicle operation.
Fuel tanks on vehicles may exhibit fuel leakage when completely filled because the luggage partition attachment screws have penetrated the top of the tank.
In a collision, bolts may damage or pierce a fuel line, causing fuel spillage. Affected vehicles may not be capable of meeting the minimum fuel leakage requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard 301, "fuel system integrity".
The tilt steering wheel lock mechanism that holds the steering wheel in place may break. Failure of the locking mechanism would allow the steering wheel to tilt, unrestrained. The wheel may travel to the high or low position.
The inertia lock mechanism may not function, allowing the seat back to fold forward, and the seat to move forward.
The locking screw that retains the pinion shaft in place in the differential could come loose. The pinion shaft turns the gears inside the differential that rotate the drive axles and rear wheels. If the locking screw comes loose, it could…
The left front suspension control arm which supports the front wheel, brake and steering assembly, may come loose at its mounting bracket. This IS due to possible inadequate welding of the bracket.
