The short answer

NHTSA received Greenpower Motor Company Inc.’s report on Sep 30, 2026. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 28, 2026.

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

What’s wrong with it?

The bus moving while the wheelchair lift is in use increases the risk of injury.

Greenpower Motor Company Inc.

(Greenpower) is recalling certain 2018-2024 EV Star and 2020-2023 EV Star Mobility Plus buses.

A control module interlock software error may allow the bus to move while the wheelchair lift is deployed.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
