    Electrical System / Instrument Cluster/Panel

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 StarTrans PS2 transit buses manufactured April 26, 2016, to October 11, 2016, built on a Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) chassis and equipped with ICU3s instrument clusters and hydraulic brakes. In the event of a brake malfunction, these clusters may illuminate the Brake System Malfunction telltale/indicator lamp with the word "PARK" instead of the word "BRAKE". As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Control and Displays," and number 105, "Hydraulic and Electric Brake Systems."
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If "PARK" illuminates instead of the word "BRAKE," the driver will be unaware of a braking issue or malfunction, increasing the risk of a crash.
