On certain buses, fasteners on various steering assembly components (steering box, steering shaft, etc.) may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. Should a steering component loosen or separate, it could result in a loss of steering capability. A loss of steering control could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Nova Bus will provide fleet operators with directives to inspect and tighten the various steering components fasteners to specifications.
