On certain school buses, the lid gasket on the power steering reservoir assembly may deteriorate and contaminate the power steering fluid. This could cause a loss of steering power assist, which could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install an updated power steering lid gasket.
