Issue
Certain buses were built with headlamps that may not meet the performance requirements of Canadian regulations. As a result, the headlamp beam pattern may be too bright in some areas and not be bright enough in others.
Safety Risk
Headlamps that are too bright could cause glare for oncoming drivers. Headlamps that are not bright enough may reduce visibility. Both of these issues could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions
Volvo Buses will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.
