Subject: TBB Bendix Air Disc Brake Calipers

Models Affected: Specific Model Year 2010 to 2019 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner HDX, EFX, and C2 (FreightlinereBay logo Custom Chassis B2 school bus chassis) buses manufactured March 16, 2009, through June 29, 2018.

 

General Information

Daimler TruckseBay logo North America LLC (DTNA), on behalf of its wholly owned subsidiaries, FreightlinereBay logo Custom Chassis Corporation and Thomas Built Buses, has decided that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists on the vehicles mentioned above.

There are approximately 11,000 vehicles involved in this campaign.

On certain buses, the BendixeBay logo air disc brake caliper on the left (driver side) rear corner may experience an unintended reduction in the gap between the brake pad and rotor (running clearance), during operation which can lead to a dragging brake. In addition, if the gap between the brake pad and rotor is eliminated, it may lead to high temperatures at the wheel end. The high temperatures may lead to the presence of smoke, smoke odor, or a potential for fire, which could result in school bus emergency evacuation procedures in uncontrolled traffic situations.

The left rear caliper will be inspected and replaced, if needed, with a new caliper containing an updated clearance adjustment mechanism.

 

Additional Repairs

Dealers must complete all outstanding recall and field service campaigns prior to the sale or delivery of a vehicle. A Dealer will be liable for any progressive damage that results from its failure to complete campaigns before sale or delivery of a vehicle.

Owners may be liable for any progressive damage that results from failure to complete campaigns within a reasonable time after receiving notification.

Work Instructions

Subject: TBB Bendix Air Disc Brake Calipers

 

Models Affected: Specific Model Year 2010 to 2019 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner HDX, EFX, and C2 (FreightlinereBay logo Custom Chassis B2 school bus chassis) buses manufactured March 16, 2009, through June 29, 2018.

 

Date/Production Code Inspection – All Vehicles

  1. For FCCC chassis, check the base label (Form WAR259) for a completion sticker for FL818 (Form WAR260) indicating this work has been done. The base label is usually located above the driver’s window. If a sticker is present, no work is needed. If there is no sticker, proceed with the next step. For TBB buses, confirm in OWL that FL818 is still open.
  2. Park the vehicle on a level surface, shut down the engine, and set the parking brake. Chock the tires.
  3. Drain all reservoirs to 0 psi (0 kPa).
  4. Clean the exterior of the BendixeBay logo air disc brake assembly.
  5. Inspect for the presence of a green dot in either location shown in Figure 1.

If no green dot is present, continue with the next step.

If a green dot is present, no further work is needed. For FCCC chassis in FL818B, clean a spot on the base label (Form WAR259). Write the recall number, FL818, on a completion sticker (Form WAR260), and attach it to the base label to indicate this recall has been completed. For TBB buses in FL818A, the procedure is complete.

  1. Inspect the identification label on the caliper. (Remove paint coating if necessary.) See Figures 1, 2, and 3. If the manufacturing date code is January 2, 2009, through November 27, 2018, replace the caliper. The majority of buses will require a caliper replacement.

If the manufacturing date code is not in the specified date range no further work is needed. For FCCC chassis in FL818B, clean a spot on the base label (Form WAR259), write the recall number, FL818, on a red completion sticker, and attach it to the base label. For TBB buses in FL818A, the procedure is complete.

  1. Start the engine to pressurize the air tanks. Once full air pressure is achieved, shut down the engine.

 

Bendix Warnings

 

Caliper Replacement 

When working on the vehicle, shut down the engine, set the parking brake, and chock the tires. Before working under the vehicle, always place jack stands under the frame rails to ensure the vehicle cannot drop. Failure to follow these steps could result in serious personal injury or death.

When using a hoist to support the air disc brake, do not attempt to use the pad retainer bar as a bracing point. It is NOT designed to support the weight of the brake. Instead, use a brace (or chain) wrapped around the entire brake to attach to the hoist.

 

SPRING OR SERVICE BRAKE CAGING AND REMOVAL

NOTE: Use the spring brake manufacturer’s recommended safety practices in all cases. Some spring brake and vehicle manufacturers permit caging the spring brake while the spring brake is engaged.

  1. Raise vehicle and support on jack stands
  2. Remove the left rear assembly, then continue to brake pad removal.
  3. Apply air to release the spring brakes (parking brakes) by using the dash-mounted air control valve. Back out the release bolt (See Figure 4, Arrow A) using a maximum torque of 26 lbf·ft (35 Nm) to cage the air released spring force on the pushrod.
  4. Exhaust the air from the spring brake chambers by using the dash-mounted air control valve. While supporting the chamber in position, remove and discard the brake chamber mounting nuts (Figure 4, Item 4). Mark the orientation of the chamber to the mounting bracket for remounting. Remove the spring brake chamber. If it becomes necessary to disconnect the air hoses to the chamber, with all the air-pressure drained from the system, mark the hoses for reconnection and then disconnect the hoses from the chamber.

 

BRAKE PAD REMOVAL

  1. Remove and retain the cable protection plate and its mounting hardware. Note the position of the sensors in the brake pad channels, and carefully remove them. In most cases it is not necessary to release the cable connector in order to move the sensors away from the pad installation work area. Inspect the wear sensors, replace if damaged or abraded.
  2. While pressing down against the brake pad retaining bar, remove the spring clip, washer, retainer pin, and brake pad retainer bar. See Figure 5.
  3. Remove and retain the pad shield (if equipped). See Figure 6.
  4. Follow the steps in the Adjuster Mechanism below. Slide the caliper inboard then outboard to permit easy removal of the brake pads. Remove and retain the brake pads.

 

ADJUSTER MECHANISM

NOTE: One of the two styles of adjuster cap (stamped metal or plastic adjuster cap) may be used. See Figure 7.

  1. With the spring brake released (or caged), remove the adjuster cap using the tab, taking care not to move the shear adapter.

NOTE: For a more detailed view, see the exploded view in Figure 8, showing the adjuster and shear adapter separated. When using the adjuster mechanism, always have the shear adaptor installed on the adjuster.

  

  1. Using a 10 mm six-point box wrench, turn the shear adapter counterclockwise and listen for the sound of three (3) clicks as the mechanism backs-off (increases) the running clearance.

 

Never turn the adjuster without the shear adapter installed. The shear adapter is a safety feature and is  designed to prevent excessive torque from being applied to the adjuster. The shear adapter will fail (by  breaking) if too much torque is applied. Park the vehicle (By other means than the air brake) on level ground  and chock wheels.

 

DISASSEMBLY – VERTICAL MOUNTING BOLT STYLE (FL818B)

  1. Supporting the air disc brake in a safe way, remove/discard the six mounting bolts. Lift the caliper up off the anchor plate. See Figure 9, Item 2.
  1. The vertical bolt assembly includes an alignment bushing. This bushing must be saved for reuse during reassembly of the brake. The bushing mounts in the torque plate and maintains the correct alignment of the brake assembly relative to the rotor.
  2. If the brake assembly does not separate from the anchor plate it may be helpful to install an M16X2.0 screw longer than the 120 mm at the bushing locations and tap the end of the bolt with a hammer to free the brake assembly. Remove the caliper/carriereBay logo assembly

 

DISASSEMBLY – AXIAL MOUNTING BOLT STYLE (FL818A)

  1. Supporting the air disc brake in a safe way, remove and discard the six bolts (Figure 10, Item 2) and washers (Figure 10, Item 3) attaching the brake to the anchor plate and remove the caliper/carriereBay logo assembly from the vehicle.

 

CALIPER/CARRIER INSTALLATION (VERTICAL AND AXIAL STYLES)

NOTE: For axial mounted calipers in FL818A, it may be necessary to use DTNA extension tool DSNCHA018005, referenced in tool letter 18TL18 and Figure 11. Torque to the values shown in Figure 12.

  1. Supporting the air disc brake in a safe way, attach the brake to the anchor plate using six bolts (Figure 10, Item 2) and, if included, washers (Figure 10, Item 3). Do not reuse removed bolts and washers.

 

SPRING OR SERVICE BRAKE REINSTALLATION

Do not use spring brake chambers with seals that have a thickness less than .12 in. (3 mm). Use only actuators which are recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.

  1. Ensure the spring brake chamber mounting is clean and free of any debris. See Figure 13, Item B.
  2. Position the spring brake chamber in the same orientation it was removed. Secure the chamber with the spring brake chamber mounting nuts (Figure 4, Item 4). Alternately, tighten both the nuts step-by-step to a final torque of 133 +/- 7 lbf·ft (180 +/- 10 Nm). Do not reuse nuts removed during the disassembly.

NOTE: Spring brake service chamber ports are indicated by: “11” service brake port and “12” spring brake port. See Figure 14.

NOTE: If a new spring brake chamber is being installed, note that the chamber may contain drain plugs installed around the perimeter of the body. If drain plugs are present, after installation, remove whichever plug is at the lowest position. The selected drain hole must be aligned downwards (or within +/- 30 degrees) when installed in the vehicle.

  1. If the air hoses were disconnected, reconnect the air hoses as marked, ensuring that each hose is not twisted or in contact with moving vehicle components. The air hose routing must allow for full caliper travel.

 

BRAKE PAD REPLACEMENT 

When replacing brake pads, shoes, rotors, or drums, always replace components as an axle set.

  • Always reline both sets of brakes on an axle at the same time.
  • Always replace both rotors/drums on an axle at the same time.
  • Always install the same type of linings/pads or drums/rotors on both axle ends of a single axle, and all four axle ends of a tandem axle, at the same time. Do not mix component types.

Failure to do so could cause uneven braking and loss of vehicle control, resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.

When installing pads and retaining springs, where appropriate, use heavy duty gloves and always keep fingers away from potential pinch hazard areas.

  1. Clean the surfaces that will come in contact with the brake pad.
  2. Install the brake pad retaining springs onto the brake pads by inserting one end of the spring onto the lug at the top of the brake pad. Carefully apply enough force to permit the second lug to fully engage, taking care to keep fingers, etc. away from the spring as it seats. See Figure 15.

 

  1. Pull the caliper fully outward and install the outboard pad. Move the caliper fully inward and install the inboard pad.
  2. To reinstall wear indicators (if used) insert the wear sensors into position in the new brake pads. Route the sensor cable through the cable protection plate channel and secure the plate with the mounting hardware removed when removing the brake pads.
  3. Push the pad retainer bar into the groove of the caliper. Press down on the pad retainer bar and insert the pad retainer pin, with the pin pointing downward, where possible. Install the washer and then the spring clip. See Figure 5.

NOTE: Do not use an open-ended wrench, as this may damage the adaptor.

  1. Using a 10mm, six point box wrench, turn the shear adapter clockwise until the pads contact the rotor. See Figure 16.

NOTE: If the shear adapter fails, you may attempt a second time with a new (unused) shear adaptor. Always doublecheck that the spring brake is released (where applicable) if a shear adapter fails. If this step was missed, the shear adaptor will break off, and it may appear that the caliper seized. In cases where a second failure of the shear adaptor confirms that the adjustment mechanism is seized, the caliper must be replaced.

  1. Using the same tool, turn the sear adapter counterclockwise and listen for the sound of 3 clicks as the mechanism backs-off (increases) the running clearance. See Figure 17.

 

  1. Replace the adjuster cap.
  2. Start engine to build air pressure. Once full system air is achieved, shut off engine.
  3. Push in on the park brake valve on the dash to release the park brakes.
  4. Un-cage the park brake spring actuator. Replace the cage bolt for future service use if removed from actuator.
  5. Check for air leaks.
  6. Apply and release the brakes. The hub should turn easily by hand after applying and releasing the brake.
  7. Recheck the running clearance. Readjust if necessary.
  8. Reinstall the wheel assembly.
  9. Raise vehicle, remove jack stands, then lower vehicle.
  10. Remove the chocks from the tires.

 

Do not operate the vehicle until the brakes have been adjusted and checked for proper operation. To do so could result in inadequate or no braking ability, which could cause personal injury or death, and property damage.

  1. In a safe area, check for proper brake operations, as follows, before putting the vehicle in service.
    • Apply and release the brakes several times to check for air leaks and proper operations.
    • Perform six low-speed stops to ensure proper parts replacement and full vehicle control.
    • Immediately after doing the above stops, check the rotor temperatures. Any rotors that are significantly cooler than others indicate a lack of braking effort on those wheels.
  2. Prepare removed calipers for return (shipment to BendixeBay logo is at no charge to the dealership).
    • Package one to two (1 fo 2) calipers in the packaging from the BendixeBay logo recall kits. Palletize three (3) or more calipers.
    • Include a copy of the recall claim for each caliper in a shipment.
    • Ship one to two (1 to 2) calipers to BendixeBay logo via UPS using account number 2AT516. See “ship to” address below.
    • Ship pallets of three (3) or more calipers to BendixeBay logo with the completed shipment information form downloaded from: https://www.bendix.com/en/servicessupport/recallcenter/recallcenter_1.jsp. Call Central Transport at (586) 467-1900 to coordinate pick up. See “ship to” address below.
