• lveco Ford has introduced a revised specification for the front disc brakes on the EuroTech. The move Follows problems experienced by some operators with thermal cracking of the rotor.
Vehicles are being fitted on the line with discs to the new specification and they are available to the aftermarket. There won't be a recall, says lveco Ford, adding that the supply of the new discs is not yet up to speed.
