NHTSA campaign 15V155000 · Part 573 safety recall report

Eldorado National- California, Inc.: Steering › Linkages › Tie Rod Assembly

Eldorado National- California, Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Mar 17, 2015 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 29. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.

The defect

ElDorado National-California, Inc. (ElDorado) is recalling certain model year 2014 ElDorado National E-Z Rider II and ElDorado National California Axess buses manufactured January 2, 2014, to December 31, 2014. The affected buses have front axles whose tie rod nuts may be improperly torqued.

The risk

If the tie rod nuts are not properly torqued, the tie rod may not be adequately secured, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

ElDorado will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tie rod nut torque and replace the parts, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on April 2, 2015. Owners may contact Eldorado customer service at 1-909-591-9557.

What this page is, and what to do next

A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.

This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 15V155000.
