What's wrong

Gillig LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Low Floor buses. The ball stud of the steering system draglink may not have been properly tightened.

Consequence

If the ball stud is insufficiently tightened, the ball stud may wear, resulting in reduced handling and stability, increasing the risk of crash.

Remedy

Gillig will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and correct the ball stud tightness, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began March 20, 2019. Owners may contact Gillig customer service at 1-510-264-5073 or 1-800-735-1500.
