On certain buses, the wrong glass may have been installed on the lower front entry door panel. As a result, the glass may not meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations.
An incorrect window glass could reduce visibility and increase the risk of a crash.
Motor Coach Industries (MCI) will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to replace the lower glass panel. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the lower glass panel replaced at an authorized MCI service center.
On certain vehicles equipped with a driveshaft with a compressed length of 30 inches or less, with a steerable trailing axle that changes the axle caster when the vehicle is in reverse caster, and that lack electronic stability control, the driveshaft could decouple from the transmission due to a universal joint failure. If hard braking is applied, resulting in the drive axle brakes locking up, the potential exists for the driveshaft to escape its containment. This could result in a loss of steering control and ultimately result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will add a secondary drive shaft hoop.
A failure of this component (powertrain) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
On certain vehicles, the Ricon wheelchair lift located in baggage bay #2 could become disengaged from a locked position and slide freely. As a secondary mode of failure, if the wheelchair lift is deployed manually, when the unit is placed back in storage, the drive mechanism may not re-engage properly, allowing the unit to move freely. An unrestrained wheelchair lift may break through the compartment door and extend beyond the outside of the vehicle while in motion, causing potential injury to persons and or damage to other vehicles or property. Correction: The manufacturer/Dealers will install a Ricon-designed retrofit kit.
A failure of this component (other) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

On certain vehicles, an incorrectly manufactured alternator cable could cause an electrical short. This could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the alternator cable.

On certain motorhomes equipped with a ZF ASTRONIC shift selector there is a potential to malfunction as a result of a cellular phone, PDA, radio interference, improper radio antenna or power supplies being within the ZF recommended 50Cm (20 in) minimum distance. When this situation happens the ZF shift selector may move into reverse without driver knowledge which could result in a crash causing personal injuries or death. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.

On certain vehicles, D-Coach facelift windows are experiencing de-bounding. De-bounding is a partial separation of the insulated glass unit to the glass frame on both the inner and outer panes of glass. Even though no separation from coaches were reported, if neglected, it could result in material damages and/or personal injuries. Correction: MCI will instruct their clients to inspect the windows for signs of water leak, wind noise or partial de-bonding. Windows showing these signs will be replaced.

On certain coaches equipped with Detroit Diesel 60 series engines, the turbocharger can fail, allowing lubricating oil to enter the exhaust system. This can result in an engine compartment fire, possibly resulting in personal injuries. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the Electronic Control Module (ECM) and install a barometric pressure sensor. The updated ECM calibration will detect a turbocharger wheel failure. The logic will then reduce fuel to the engine and safely shut it down to prevent a fire.
