Steering: linkages: tie rod assembly
- What is wrong
- On certain transit buses equipped with arvin-meritor and trw 20-edl ball socket assemblies have a less robust bearing design, which leads to higher wear rates and more rapid wear-out than previous designs.

- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the ball socket assemblies free of charge. The recall began on may 28, 2005. Owners may contact eldorado at 909‑591‑9557.
