NHTSA recall campaign
13V131000
What was wrong
Defect
North American Bus Industries (NABI) is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 416 and model year 2012 31LFW transit buses manufactured October 30, 2008, through April 3, 2013 and equipped with a four-position rotary defroster switch with ring terminals. The defroster switch may overheat and melt the dash.
Risk
The overheating of the switch may lead to a fire or distract the driver and increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
Manufacturer remedy
NABI will notify owners and will install relays to reduce the current flow. This will be done free of charge. Owners may contact NABI at 1-256-831-4296. NABI's campaign number is 20133.
