What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Nova Bus (US) Inc. (Nova) is recalling certain 2022 LFS transit buses. During assembly, the power steering hose may not have been assembled correctly, which can result in hose detachment and a loss of power steering assist.

The risk

Sudden loss of power steering assist can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Nova Bus will inspect and replace the power steering hoses, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 6, 2023. Owners may contact Nova customer service at 1-800-350-6682. Nova's numbers for this recall are CR5374 and CR5375.

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.nhtsa.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.
