Details

What's wrong: These vehicles may have been transported with rear brake rotor bolts that are not fully seated allowing the head to protrude above the wheel mounting surface.

Why it matters: The raised bolt head could lead to torque loss in the wheel joint, potentially leading to wheel separation, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: All the affected vehicles have been quarantined at the coach builderâs facilities and will be repaired before delivery to owners. Notices were mailed to the coach builders on May 24, 2012. For more information,
