2008 Innovative SDS-45 recalls
Recall 09V-067: Power Train
Problem: Innovative is recalling 4 my 2008 sfs-45, sds-45 and my 2009 sds-42 buses equipped with arvinmeritor axle assemblies. The wheel end studs may have been improperly tempered rendering them brittle and susceptible to fracture. If one wheel stud fractures, the remaining wheel studs are required to carry more load. If left in this condition, the remaining wheel studs may also fracture even if they are properly manufactured.
Risk: Fractured wheel studs could result in a vehicle crash.
Fix: Innovative is working with arvinmeritor who will replace any aftermarket replacement stud free of charge (Please see 08e038). Owners may contact arvinmeritor at 1-248-435-8793 or innovative at 903-832-6684.
