Temsa Recalls 2012-2013 TS30 Motorcoaches Due to Brake Hose Defect

Plain-English summary

Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured from November 2011 through December 2012. The recall involves 38 vehicles.

The defect occurs when the vehicle is put in the "body lift" position, which causes the brake hoses near the front tires to become stretched. After repeated use of this function, the hoses may leak air, reducing the braking force of the front brake system and increasing the risk of a crash.

Temsa will notify owners, and dealers will install longer front brake hoses free of charge. The recall began on February 20, 2013. Owners may contact Temsa at 1-404-602-0151 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
