DEFECT #1 - VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL


Posted on: 2002-09-25
Description
On certain school and transit buses equipped with electronic throttle control/accelerator pedals supplied by williams controls industries, the weld attaching the clevis to the plate has insufficient penetration and could allow the clevis to separate from the plate.

Consequence
If the clevis separated from the plate while the vehicle was in use, the vehicle would return to idle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
International will retrofit vehicles with a new pedal rod and bracket.  Owner notification began december 16, 2002.  Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact international at 1-800-448-7825.

Notes
Also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
