If the rear exit door does not open and close as expected, there is an increased risk of injury to bus occupants.

Nova notified owners, and dealers corrected the exit door control programming, free of charge. Owners may contact Nova customer service at 1-450-472-6410. Nova's number for this recall is CR1300.

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.
