Temsa Recalls TS30 Motorcoaches Due to Limited Right-Side Visibility

Temsa is recalling 124 TS30 motorcoaches because the driver may have difficulty seeing oncoming traffic from the right side at certain intersections.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural visibility defect that increases the risk of a crash, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. is recalling 124 model year 2012, 2013, and 2014 TS30 motorcoaches. The affected vehicles were manufactured between November 2011 and April 2014. Specifically, the recall includes 2012 models built from November to December 2011, 2013 models built from September 2012 to April 2013, and 2014 models built from July 2013 to April 2014.

In the affected vehicles, the driver may have a hard time seeing oncoming traffic from the right side at an intersection where the angle is less than ninety degrees. This reduced ability to see approaching traffic increases the risk of a crash.

Temsa will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional interior mirror to improve the driver's ability to see oncoming traffic, free of charge. The recall began on November 13, 2014. Owners may contact CH Bus Sales, the US Agent for Temsa, at 1-877-858-3672, or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
