Issue
This recall is for brake chambers installed on certain transit buses or sold as a replacement part.
Safety Risk
A parking brake that self-applies while driving without the brake lights turning on could cause a person not to recognize that the vehicle is braking. This could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, overheated brakes could create the risk of a fire.
Corrective Actions
Nova Bus will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake chamber(s).
