2001 Blue Bird LTC 40 & 2001 Blue Bird Wanderlodge recall: speed control
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motor coaches/motor homes 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.
💥 The 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.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace these pedals. All vehicles have been inspected and corrected.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
