    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    New flyer is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 heavy duty transit buses. The three retaining bolts for the output flange on the ise propulsion system are subject to fatigue failure.

    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    Separation of the driveshaft and output flange from the vehicle creates the potential for bodily injury of bystanders and/or property damage.

    Dealers will inspect the drive line components and replace the output flange bolts free of charge. The safety recall began on august 18, 2011. Owners may contact new flyer at 1-204-934-4876.
