Issue

On certain buses outfitted with Automatic Fire Suppression System (AFSS) Linear Thermal Detectors (LTD), the routing of the wiring for these systems could be compromised by normal engine compartment temperatures. If this were to occur, it could result in the AFSS system activating and giving a false warning to the driver, potentially resulting in a stopped vehicle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and reroute the wiring.
