What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

ARBOC Specialty Vehicles, LLC (ARBOC) is recalling certain model year 2009-2014 Spirit of Mobility transit buses, models 191WB and 210WB, and Spirit of Freedom transit buses, models 191WB and 210WB, manufactured September 24, 2008, to March 27, 2014. The affected vehicles were built with an undersized wire to the fuel pump supply circuit.

The risk

The undersized wire may cause the fuel pump to not function, resulting in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

ARBOC will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected harness, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in December 2014. Owners may contact ARBOC customer service at 1-866-953-5555. ARBOC's number for this recall is TSB1401.

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.
