ON CERTAIN DIESEL BUSES BUILT ON FORD E-SERIES CHASSIS AND EQUIPPED WITH CARRIER AIR CONDITIONING, THE MOUNTING BRACKET WELDS CAN BREAK OR FALL OFF.
IF THE WELD BREAKS OR FALLS OFF, THE VACUUM PUMP COULD SHIFT CAUSING THE MISALIGNMENT AND EVENTUALLY LOSE THE DRIVE BELT WHICH COULD LEAD TO THE LOSS OF THE PRIMARY BRAKING SYSTEM, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
CARRIER IS CONDUCTING THE OWNER NOTIFICATION AND REMEDY FOR THIS CAMPAIGN. CARRIER WILL INSPECT THE WELDS FOR CRACKING AND RE-WELD AS NECESSARY, FREE OF CHARGE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CARRIER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT 1-800-450-2211.
CUSTOMERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV.
