What NHTSA recorded

The hydraulic hoses which interconnect with the hydraulic pump, hydraulic radiator fan motor and power steering gear have an undersized wire mesh core which results in an improper hose end crimp. The improper crimp can cause a leak, emptying the power steering hydraulic fluid reservoir, resulting in loss of power steering assist.

Possible consequence

Complete loss of power steering assist can cause loss ofvehicle control and result in an accident.

Remedy

Owners are being asked to inspect hose for the date code 3-1q93 which is embossed on the hose cover every 18 inches. Replacement hoses will be provided. Owners can handle the repair themselves or have a blue bird distributor assist them. Owners will be reimbursed for the labor charges following completion of the recall work.
