Recall 17V557000

Suspension › Front — Eldorado · reported 7 Sep 2017 · 41 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Eldorado National-California, Inc. (Eldorado National) is recalling certain 2015 35-foot and 40-foot Axess transit buses. The front suspension link rod clamps may not be properly torqued, allowing the link rod to loosen.

The risk

A loose link rod can decrease steering ability, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Eldorado National will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the clamp for proper torque, installing new bolts as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on November 7, 2017. Owners may contact Eldorado National customer service at 1-909-591-9557.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
