Defect
On large touring buses equipped with manually folding mirror stays, the mounting bolts on the mirror-side stay may loosen, causing cracks to develop at the mirror-side stay mounting point on the pivot assembly. With continued use, the cracks progress and, in the worst case, the left-side mirror may detach from the vehicle.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, as an interim measure, inspect the mirror-side stay mounting point and, if a crack is found, replace the pivot assembly with a new unit. A permanent corrected part will be substituted once the final remedy is determined.
