BLUE BIRD BODY COMPANY recall for vehicle speed control, reported to NHTSA on Mar 21, 2002, covering about 24 vehicles.
The problem
On certain motor coaches/motor homes 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.
The risk
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.
The fix
Dealers will replace these pedals. All vehicles have been inspected and corrected.
