Service bulletins

6 bulletins

Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

This field service bulletin is instructing vehicle owners and aftermarket part purchasers to remove the "Duck Bill" valves in the rear run box to prevent water intrapment, which can contribute to corrosion of some components.

FS-2017-04

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

This field service bulletin is informing vehicle owners and aftermarket part purchasers that the Pressure Relief Device (PRD) vent tube caps on Agility CNG systems are important to maintain to help prevent moisture and/or debris from causing the PRD to malfunction. The bulletin is clear that the existing vent tube caps need not be replaced unless missing or damaged, but if they are replaced, the PRD vent lines and PRD bodies must be inspected prior to replacing a cap. The new vent tube caps are red in color to facilitate visibility, making inspections easier.

FS-2017-03

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

This field service bulletin is informing vehicle owners and aftermarket part purchasers that Neway®, a SAF-HOLLAND® division, has identified some suspension installation and monitoring issues on the ADLSD-120 suspension used on 29' Gillig buses manufactured between 2007 and 2017. The following provides information on correct shim/spacer locations, bushing inspection, equalizing beam blade out of service wear criteria and bushing shim installation to extend the service life of the suspension. Improper maintenance can lead to excessive beam and bushing wear and failure.

Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
