Issue

Issue:
Certain buses were equipped with front auxiliary lamps of a non-standard colour, such as blue lights next to the front destination sign. Canadian regulations provide requirements for the colours of vehicle lighting.
UPDATE - When Nova Bus notified Transport Canada about this problem, they believed the auxiliary lamps could impair the effectiveness of other required lights and cause a distraction or confusion for others. After further investigation, Nova Bus determined that the auxiliary lamps on the subject vehicles do not reduce the effectiveness of lights required by Canadian regulations. Additionally, the auxiliary lamps do not pose a risk of distraction or confusion for others. Accordingly, this safety recall was withdrawn.

Safety Risk:
This problem does not pose a safety risk.

Corrective Actions:
This is not a recall. This notice is for information only.
