1994 Blue Bird Aare

Component

Suspension:Front:Wheel Bearing

Consequence of Defect

the wheelbearing locknut and cotter pin were not installed on the front axle hubs. the can cause a gradual increase in wheel shimmy.

Corrective Action

this can result in increased difficulty in steering and, if uncorrected, separation of the wheel from the axle.

Recall Notes

repair kits will be furnished to owners and reimbursement for labor and materials will be made.

1994 Blue Bird Aare

Component

Engine And Engine Cooling:Cooling System:Fan

Consequence of Defect

a sudden hydraulic pressure loss during hard turns results in a momentary loss of power steering assist. the pressure loss occurs when the hydraulically driven engine cooling fan turns off in the turn.

Corrective Action

the driver reacts to the loss of power steering assist by oversteering, which could result in a vehicle accident.

Recall Notes

the hydraulic control valves will be replaced with valves of a new design. until such time as parts are available, owners will be instructed to disconnect the fan cutoff switch so that hydraulically driven fans will run full time, eliminating the pressure spike.
