The defect
Eldorado National-California, Inc. (Eldorado National) is recalling certain model year 2016 E-Z Rider II transit buses manufactured March 1, 2016, to July 31, 2016. The affected vehicles are equipped with front steel rims that may allow the inside sidewall of the front tires to contact the outer end of the front tie-rods due to insufficient clearance.
The risk
If the tie-rods contact the front tires, the tires may be damaged and suddenly lose air, increasing the risk of a crash.
