Temsa Recalls 2015-2017 TS45 Motorcoaches Due to Tire Clearance Issue

Temsa is recalling 2015-2017 TS45 motorcoaches because insufficient clearance between rear twin tires may cause them to rub and fail, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (tire failure due to mechanical interference) that explicitly increases the risk of a crash, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 TS 45 motorcoaches manufactured between July 25, 2014, and April 21, 2016. The recall involves 13 vehicles.

The defect is caused by insufficient clearance between the twin tires on the rear axle. This lack of space allows the tires to rub against each other, which can result in tire failure. An unexpected tire failure can increase the risk of a crash.

Temsa will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steel rims with ones that have a bigger offset, free of charge. The recall began on September 19, 2016. Owners may contact CH Bus Sales at 1-407-271-8935 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
