Posted on: 2002-11-19
Description
On certain front engine school and transit buses equipped with hydraulic brakes, the rear hydraulic brake hose could contact the frame rail and abrade, allowing brake fluid leakage.

Consequence
If this occurs, vehicle braking could be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Dealers will inspect the rear brake hose to frame rail clearance and reposition the brake hose clamps at the axle to ensure adequate clearance.  Any chafed brake hoses will be replaced.  Owner notification began december 12, 2002.  Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact blue bird at 1-478-822-2242.
