Defect

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MOTOR HOMES, TRANSIT AND SCHOOL BUSES EQUIPPED WITH TRW DRAG LINKS. EACH DRAG LINK ASSEMBLY CONTAINS TWO 20-EDL MODEL BALL SOCKET ASSEMBLIES. CERTAIN OF THE BALL-SOCKET BEARINGS HAVE A BELOW SPECIFICATION CASE DEPTH AND/OR HARDNESS WHICH CAN LEAD TO PREMATURE WEAR OUT OF THE SOCKET.

Consequence

THIS CAN LEAD TO PREMATURE WEAR WITH POSSIBLE SEPARATION OF THE BALL STUD FROM THE SOCKET, INCREASING THE RISK OF LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

Remedy

SPARTAN CUSTOMERS ARE BEING NOTIFIED TO CONTACT TRW FOR THE FREE REMEDY REPAIR.
