Recall 10V-647: Steering

Reported Dec 21, 2010 · 12 vehicles affected · CHAMPION BUS, INC.

Problem: Champion bus is recalling certain vehicles built on freightliner s2 chassis and equipped with trw igen3 intermediate steering columns.

Fix: Daimler trucks/freightliner will handle the remedy and quarterly reports for this campaign. Please see freightliner's defect report (10v-322). Freightliner will notify owners and the buses will be repaired free of charge. The safety recall began on december 23, 2010. Owners may contact daimler trucks/freightliner at 1-800-547-0712.
