DEFECT #1 - ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:FAN
Posted on: 2002-03-26
Description
On certain school buses, misalignment of the fan drive system components can cause premature belt and pulley bearing wear.
Consequence
If the school bus is disabled by a cooling system failure and is stalled on the side of the road, an increased risk of a crash resulting in injury to a school bus occupant could occur.
Corrective Action
Dealers will replace the fan belt, idler pulley, and belt tensioner and the pulley's laser will be aligned. Owner notification began june 10, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact freightliner at 1-800-547-0712.
