The defect
SVO Group Inc. (SVO Group) is recalling certain 2018 Embassy shuttle buses. The U-bolts that hold the leaf spring to the rear axle may have been insufficiently tightened.
The risk
The loose U-bolts may further loosen or break allowing the axle to separate and cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
SVO Group has notified owners and instructed them to contact MORryde International, Inc. for the repairs. Owners may contact SVO Group customer service at 1-574-295-9359.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
