2001 Neoplan AN460 recalls
Recall 02V-004: Vehicle Speed Control
Problem: On certain buses 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.
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.
Fix: Dealers will replace these pedals. Owner notification began during december 2001. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact williams control at 1-503-684-8600 or neoplan at 1-719-336-3256.
Recall 01V-059: Service Brakes, Air
Problem: Vehicle description: transit buses equipped with arvinmeritor "w-series" air-actuated brake cam rollers. These rollers were installed as original equipment and also sold as replacement parts. The affected brake rollers may fracture if subjected to high application loadings.
Risk: If one or more of the affected brake rollers fracture, proper brake application could be compromised, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
Fix: Arvinmeritor is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Dealers will inspect brake rollers and replace them if necessary. 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 arvinmeritor at 1-859-525-3361.
