Defect
On large and medium buses, the engine intake pipe plug is improperly designed for its mounting structure. Under the high internal pressure generated during heavy-load driving, the plug can be expelled from the intake pipe. This causes engine output to drop while driving and may result in the plug falling onto the roadway.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, the complete intake pipe assembly will be replaced with a corrected part.
