Blue Bird Body Company castle nut that attaches the drag link to the steering arm may not have been torqued to the proper specifications.
The short version
Blue Bird Body Company reported a problem with the link connection. Here is what owners need to know.
The castle nut that attaches the drag link to the steering arm may not have been torqued to the proper specifications.
Improperly torqued drag link castle nuts could cause excessive movement at the drag link to steering arm connection which could lead to potential separation of the drag link from the steering arm and loss of steering control, which may increase the risk of a crash.
Any vehicle where the castle nuts are found to be loose will also have its steering arm inspected for wear, free of charge.
