| 2022696 | 2022-12-07. Lights And Instruments. Issue: Certain buses were equipped with front auxiliary lamps of a non-standard colour, such as blue lights next to the front destination sign. Canadian regulations provide requirements for the colours of vehicle lighting. UPDATE - When Nova Bus notified Transport Canada about this problem, they believed the auxiliary lamps could impair the effectiveness of other required lights and cause a distraction or confusion for others. After further investigation, Nova Bus determined that the auxiliary lamps on the subject vehicles do not reduce the effectiveness of lights required by Canadian regulations. Additionally, the auxiliary lamps do not pose a risk of distraction or confusion for others. Accordingly, this safety recall was withdrawn. Safety Risk: This problem does not pose a safety risk. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. This notice is for information only. |
| 2022248 | 2022-05-11. Lights And Instruments. Issue: On certain buses, a message board on the rear of the bus displays momentary text when the stop lamps or turn signals are used. These momentary text messages could cause confusion for other road users. Safety Risk: Text messages about the stop lamps and turn signals that are displayed on the rear of the bus could cause confusion for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Nova Bus will notify owners in writing and provide them with directions for removing the rear message board. |
| 2021128 | 2021-03-09. Lights And Instruments. Issue: On certain transit buses, the stop lamps and tail lamps are located too high above the ground. Canadian regulations provide a maximum mounting height for the stop lamps and tail lamps. Safety Risk: Stop lamps and tail lamps that are mounted too high may cause reduced visibility, which could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Nova Bus will notify owners by mail and provide them with directions for changing the mounting position of the stop and tail lamps. |
A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
