Recall 04V-611: 2004 Diamond Coach C3500
DIAMOND COACH CORPORATION recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on Dec 29, 2004, covering about 37 vehicles.
The problem
On certain diesel buses built on ford e-350 and e-450 chassis and equipped with carrier vacuum pump brackets, the brackets could break.
The risk
When the bracket breaks, the vacuum pump that provides the power to the power brakes becomes inoperative, increasing the risk of a crash. Also, the power steering could be affected if the belt gets into the other belts.
The fix
Dealers will replace the brackets. The recall began on january 21, 2005. Owners should contact diamond coach at 1-620-795-2191.
