Equipment Adaptive/Mobility / Wheelchair Lift/Ramp
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Prevost Car (US) Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2005-2024 X3-45, 2017-2019 and 2021-2023 X3-45 Commuter, 2006-2007, 2014, and 2018 H3-41, 2005-2020 and 2022-2024 H3-45, and 2019 H3-45 VIP buses equipped with a wheelchair lift. The wheelchair platform bridging device may be too steep, which can cause the wheelchair to become unstable. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 403, "Platform Lift Devices" and 404, "Platform Lift Installations."
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
An unstable wheelchair increases the risk of injury to lift occupants.

Electrical System / 12v/24v/48v Battery / Cables
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Prevost Cars, Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain model year 2006-2010 X3-45 coaches manufactured January 11, 2006, to April 12, 2010. The affected vehicles have booster stud connections that may rust. As they rust, the stud may weaken and break, allowing the power cable to ground against the vehicle frame.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If the power cable electrically shorts against the frame, there would be an increased risk of a fire.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Prevost will notify owners, and dealers will install a protective box over the connection to prevent the power cable from contacting the frame if it comes loose. Any cable that is corroded will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on July 24, 2015. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-800-463-7738.

Parking Brake
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
On certain motor coaches equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the internal rubber check valve may leak causing a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This could cause delay or failure in applying the parking brakes which could result in a vehicle roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Prevost is working with bendix to repair these vehicles (please see 07e037). Bendix will install a check valve repair kit for the affected sr-7 spring brake modulating valve free of charge.
