Service bulletin FS-2017-03
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
This field service bulletin is informing vehicle owners and aftermarket part purchasers that Neway®, a SAF-HOLLAND® division, has identified some suspension installation and monitoring issues on the ADLSD-120 suspension used on 29' Gillig buses manufactured between 2007 and 2017. The following provides information on correct shim/spacer locations, bushing inspection, equalizing beam blade out of service wear criteria and bushing shim installation to extend the service life of the suspension. Improper maintenance can lead to excessive beam and bushing wear and failure.
