Brand(s)
Summary
Please see corrective actions section below
Affected products
2021 | NEW FLYER | XE40, 2022 | NEW FLYER | XE40
Issue
On a small number of transit buses, the recall repairs completed during recall R23-002 (Transport Canada recall number 2023-073) may not be effective. As a result, a second repair is required. On a small number of transit buses, the automatic drain valves inside the energy storage system (ESS) may not work properly. As a result, liquid could build up inside the ESS and cause a short circuit.
Safety risk
A short circuit can create the risk of a fire.
Corrective actions
New Flyer will notify owners by email and provide you with instructions for how to remove the rubber washer from the drain valves. Alternatively, New Flyer will arrange for a service team to complete the recall repairs. New Flyer advises that if a yellow "LOW COOLANT" or a red "CRITICALLY LOW COOLANT" warning displays on the dash, all ESSs must be inspected immediately.
