Issue

On certain school buses equipped with Bergstom Inverters, a transistor could fail in the inverter due to an insufficient solder joint. This could result in the inverter overheating, causing smoke, and increase the risk of fire, which could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the existing inverter with an inverter from an alternate vendor.
