2002 SUPREME CLASSIC AMERICAN TROLLEY Recall

Campaign:

05V314000 on 07/12/2005

Component:

Structure:body:door

Affected:

48

Defect:

On certain trolleys equipped with vapor door assemblies, the two piece curved connecting rods when used as an element of the door actuation linkage in conjunction with a vapor medium pneumatic differential engine, may be subject to fatigue failure resulting in bending or breaking of the connecting rod.

Consequence:

A broken connecting rod can allow the door panel to move freely in an uncontrolled manner, leaving passengers inside the vehicle unprotected by the door panel and enabling a protruding door panel to strike persons or objects outside the vehicle.

Correction:

Supreme corporation is working with vapor bus international to notify owners and have the repair performed on their vehicles. the remedy consists of replacing the two piece connecting rod with a one piece connecting rod. owners may contact supreme corporation at 219-642-4888 or vapor at 847-777-6400.

Customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty: 1-800-424-9153); or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
