Motor Coach Industries on certain motor coaches, a weld joining a gusset support from the front bogie leg to the steering box mounting plate can crack.
The short version
MOTOR COACH INDUSTRIES, INC reported a problem with the steering gear box (other than rack and pinion). Here is what owners need to know.
ON CERTAIN MOTOR COACHES, A WELD JOINING A GUSSET SUPPORT FROM THE FRONT BOGIE LEG TO THE STEERING BOX MOUNTING PLATE CAN CRACK.
THIS CAN ALLOW ADDITIONAL MOVEMENT OF THE MOUNTING PLATE IN DRY STEER APPLICATIONS AND AT THE EXTREME OUTWARD STEERING POSITIONS INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL GUSSET TO THESE ASSEMBLIES AND REWELD AS REQUIRED, free of charge.
