Thomas Built Saf-T-Liner C2 School Bus: Engine

Affects Thomas Built Saf-T-Liner C2 School Bus · 2020–2021 — about 106 vehicles.

The hazard

Issue: On certain school buses built with a Detroit Diesel DD5 engine, the bolts that attach the engine cooling fan could loosen. If this happens, the fan could detach and/or cause damage to nearby parts. This could disable the school bus. Safety Risk: A bus that is disabled could result in an evacuation in an uncontrolled environment, which may create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their bus to a DTNA authorized service facility to inspect and repair the fan hub fasteners, as required.
