Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

SEPARATION OF THE DRIVESHAFT AND OUTPUT FLANGE FROM THE VEHICLE CREATES THE POTENTIAL FOR BODILY INJURY OF BYSTANDERS AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

NEW FLYER IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005-2010 HEAVY DUTY TRANSIT BUSES.

THE THREE RETAINING BOLTS FOR THE OUTPUT FLANGE ON THE ISE PROPULSION SYSTEM ARE SUBJECT TO FATIGUE FAILURE.

FAILURE OF THE THREE BOLTS RETAINING THE OUTPUT FLANGE TO THE COMBINATION GEAR BOX ON THE ISE PROPULSION SYSTEM COULD RESULT IN A SEPARATION OF A PORTION OF THE DRIVESHAFT, WITH THE OUTPUT FLANGE ATTACHED, FROM THE VEHICLE.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
