Nova Bus is recalling certain 2021-2023 LFS transit buses due to defective turn signal wiring that may fail intermittently, increasing crash risk. Free repairs are available.

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: This recall involves a safety-critical component (turn signals) with a potential risk of crashes if the signals fail, but no actual injuries, deaths, or crashes have been reported in the source text. This fits the criterion for Score 3: risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Nova Bus (US) Inc. is recalling certain 2021-2023 LFS transit buses equipped with a directional foot switch. The directional foot switch wiring defect may cause the turn signals to intermittently become inoperative. Inoperative turn signals may not notify other drivers of a turning vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

A total of 718 vehicles are affected by this recall. Owners of 2021, 2022, and 2023 LFS models should contact Nova Bus to verify if their vehicle is included in this recall.

Nova Bus will inspect and repair the directional foot switch wiring free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 4, 2023.
