Power train › Driveline › Driveshaft

Summary: New flyer is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 heavy duty transit buses. The three retaining bolts for the output flange on the ise propulsion system are subject to fatigue failure.

Consequence: Separation of the driveshaft and output flange from the vehicle creates the potential for bodily injury of bystanders and/or property damage.
