On certain motor coaches, the front hubs could become damaged if certain service instructions are not followed. In the worst case, the hub could fail entirely, allowing the wheel to separate from the vehicle, and strike nearby motorists or bystanders, which could result in property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: Dealers will install a reinforced wheel hub assembly.
