ZR-IB-017
McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc. states that making any changes to the eZR Low Voltage (LV) wiring system on Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) units have been shown to, in some instances, affect the ability of the system to properly charge. Typically, BEV systems rely on a complete sleep mode during charging; therefore, any changes that affect the ignition key-off state of the vehicle have been shown especially likely to impact the charging procedure.
MISC-TSIB-081
According to an amended ruling in the visual inspection labeling requirement in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 304, the periodic inspection interval for compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel containers has been modified to âat least every 12 months.â McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing will support this change by updating safety decals and installing these new decals when a vehicle is inspected by McNeilus CNG technicians, and by answering questions regarding this periodic inspection interval update and how McNeilus will support it.
