ROOFTOP CONDENSER ASSEMBLIES/COVER DETACHMENT
Description
CARRIER IS RECALLING 141 ROOFTOP MOUNTED CONDENSER ASSEMBLIES, MODEL K410 WITH P/NO. 77-62198-00, MANUFACTURED BETWEEN JANUARY 1, 2008 AND JANUARY 30, 2009, INSTALLED AS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT FOR USE ON VARIOUS SMALL TRANSIT BUSES. THE COVER OF THE CONDENSER ASSEMBLY MAY INTERFERE WITH THE COIL HEADER WHEN THE COVER IS PLACED ON THE UNIT ASSEMBLY. THE POTENTIAL INTERFERENCE PREVENTS THE COVER FROM RESTING ON THE UNIT MOUNTING SURFACE, CREATING A GAP BETWEEN THE COVER AND UNIT ASSEMBLY.
Injuries / Consequence
THIS CONDITION WILL NOT PERMIT THE COVER FASTENERS TO SECURELY CLAMP THE COVER TO THE UNIT ASSEMBLY, WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE COVER DISLOCATING FROM THE UNIT DURING BUS OPERATION, POSSIBLY CAUSING A CRASH OR CAUSE INJURY TO PEDESTRIANS.
Remedy
EACH VEHICLE MANUFACTURER WILL FILE A DEFECT REPORT AND REMEDY PLAN FOR THEIR VEHICLES WHICH INCLUDED THESE CONDENSER ASSEMBLIES AS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. CARRIER WILL PROVIDE A FREE RETROFIT REPAIR KIT TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT THEIR VEHICLE MANUFACTURER OR CARRIER TRANSICOLD TOLL-FREE AT 1-800-673-2431.
