Transport Canada Recall - 2013020 - DAIMLER TRUCK NORTH AMERICA

On certain school buses, the 20-amp headlamp circuit breaker may trip during continuous operation in the high beam mode, resulting in a temporary loss of power to the headlamps, marker lamps, tail lamps and dash lighting, until the circuit breaker cools and automatically resets. Loss of headlamp illumination, should it occur during a rainy/snowy day, or during hours of darkness, could compromise the driver’s ability to see the road and its users. Also, failure of the lighting system could render the vehicle less visible to other motorists. These issues could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the 20-amp circuit breaker with a 30-amp breaker.
