Defect SummaryOn certain transit buses equipped with arvin-meritor and trw 20-edl ball socket assemblies have a less robust bearing design, which leads to higher wear rates and more rapid wear-out than previous designs.
Consequence SummaryThis premature wear-out of the ball socket assemblies may result in the separation of the tie-rod assembly which, in turn, could lead to a loss of control of the bus and possible injury of death to the occupants of the bus in the event of such crash.
Corrective SummaryDealers will replace the ball socket assemblies free of charge. the recall began on may 28, 2005. owners may contact eldorado at 909-591-9557.
