The defect
MORryde International, Inc. (MORryde) is recalling certain 2018 Ford E-450 chassis modified for transit bus use. The U-bolts on the rear axle that hold the leaf spring and rear axle together may have been insufficiently tightened.
The risk
The loose U-bolts may further loosen or break allowing the axle to separate and cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
MORryde will notify the chassis purchasers, and dealers for those companies will inspect the tightness of the U-bolts, replacing or tightening the U-bolts as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 28, 2018. Owners may contact MORryde customer service at 1-574-293-1581.

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 18V367000.
