Recall 01V-111: 1999–2001 Eldorado ISB 185, 2001 Eldorado ISB 190 and 5 more
ELDORADO NATIONAL recall for service brakes, air, reported to NHTSA on Jul 2, 2001, covering about 398 vehicles.
The problem
Vehicle description: transit and shuttle buses equipped with cummins isc and isl diesel engines. The internal front bushing can spin, causing damage to the air compressor, and possibly to the spindle drive at the rear face of the air compressor which is used to provide power to the vehicle hydraulic pump. Failure of the air compressor's spindle drive could lead to loss of power assist if the hydraulic pump ceases to operate.
The risk
Without power assist, the vehicle becomes very difficult to turn and could possibly result in a vehicle crash.
The fix
Cummins will notify eldorado customers and replace the air compressor free of charge. 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 cummins customer assistance center 1-800-343-7357.
