SVO Group is recalling 2017-2018 Ford E-350 and E-450 shuttle buses because backup camera images may reverse, increasing crash risk.

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 risk-of-harm product where the defect increases the risk of a crash, but no injuries or fatalities have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

SVO Group Inc. is recalling certain 2017-2018 Ford E-350 and E-450-based shuttle buses equipped with ASA Electronics Voyager monitors. These monitors are used to display the back-up camera image. The recall affects 52 vehicles.

The affected monitors may revert to factory default settings, which can cause the camera image to be reversed. This defect may cause the driver to inadvertently turn the wrong direction to avoid an object behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

SVO Group will work with ASA to notify owners. ASA will provide a harness relay capacitor module to eliminate the image reversal free of charge. The recall began on May 9, 2019. Owners may contact ASA Electronics customer service at 1-800-384-4400 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
