Iveco Bus Eurorider: Steering May Be Affected
IVECO BUS EURORIDER Steering Recall Summary IVECO Bus is recalling 137 Eurorider buses in the United Kingdom because dirt can enter the steering shaft joint and cause the splines to wear down over time. This wear leads to loose steering that may cause pulsing sensations, vehicle wandering, and eventually difficulty controlling the steering. The company will replace the steering shaft with a modified version on affected vehicles.

- Product
- Vehicles: IVECO BUS EURORIDER. Units affected: 137
- Reason
- Ingress of dirt into the steering shaft sliding joint will cause the splines to wear prematurely. As the joint wears play at the steering will become apparent and over time the play will increase leading to some pulsing when the steering wheel is turned and the vehicle wandering. If all these warning signs are ignored and the vehicle is still used there will be increased difficulty in maintaining steering control. Remedy: Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the steering shaft with a modified type.
