What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Volvo Bus Corporation (Volvo Bus) is recalling certain 2025 Volvo 9700 buses. The emergency exit labels that provide exit identification and operating instructions may not be secured properly, allowing the labels to detach. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."

The risk

Missing emergency exit labels can prevent or delay the use of the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.

The remedy

Prevost will replace the emergency exit labels, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed December 19, 2024. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-866-870-2046. Volvo Bus' number for this recall is SR24-86.

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 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.
