## What is wrong

Nova Bus is recalling certain 2016\-2020 LFS and LFS Artic vehicles.  The sealing washer may not seat correctly in the pilot bore holes, allowing the high pressure fuel rail assembly to leak.


## What can happen

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect the rail threads, and replace the rail as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed on July 9, 2021.  Owners may contact Nova Bus customer service at 1\-800\-350\-6682.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
