What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. (Temsa) is recalling certain model year 2012 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured November 2011, to December 2011; 2013 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured September 2012, to April 2013; and 2014 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured July 2013, to April 2014. In the affected vehicles, the driver may have a hard time seeing oncoming traffic from the right side at an intersection where the angle is less than ninety degrees.

The risk

The driver's reduced ability to easily see traffic approching from the right side increases the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Temsa will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional interior mirror to improve the driver's ability to see oncoming traffic, free of charge. The recall began on November 13, 2014. Owners may contact CH Bus Sales, US Agent for Temsa, at 1-877-858-3672.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
