Issue
Issue:
On certain transit buses, the transmission yoke bolt could loosen and cause the driveshaft to separate from the transmission. If this happens, there would be a sudden loss of power to the wheels.
Safety Risks:
A sudden loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, a bus that is disabled could create the need for a transfer of passengers in an uncontrolled environment, which may create a risk of injury.
Corrective Actions:
New Flyer will notify owners by email. An Allison Transmission technician will inspect and re-tighten the transmission yoke bolts, as necessary.
