Vehicle speed control
- What is wrong
- On certain school and transit buses equipped with electronic throttle control/accelerator pedals supplied by williams controls industries, the weld attaching the clevis to the plate has insufficient penetration and could allow the clevis to separate from the plate.
- Risk
- If the clevis separated from the plate while the vehicle was in use, the vehicle would return to idle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- International will retrofit vehicles with a new pedal rod and bracket. Owner notification began december 16, 2002. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.
