Summary
Motor Coach Industries (MCI) is recalling certain 2018-2020 D4505 and D4500 coaches equipped with an optional steerable tag axle. The tag axle mounting block clamps that retain the tie rod to obtain the forward steer orientation may slip, resulting in the tag axle being out of alignment.
Consequence
If the tag axle becomes misaligned with the front of the vehicle, the rear of the vehicle may strike other vehicles or pedestrians, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Remedy
MCI will notify owners, and dealers will replace the block clamps and retorque the fasteners, free of charge. The recall began February 19, 2020. Owners may contact MCI customer service at 1-800-241-2947.
