Issue

On certain buses, the instrument panel may fail to display the "Check Engine" or "Stop Engine" indicator lamps. As a result, the engine may enter de-rate or shutdown mode without giving the operator prior indication of a problem, or the chance to use the "Stop Engine Override" function to move the vehicle to a safe location. Engine shutdown would result in lost vehicle propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Factory service representatives will visit customer locations and update the instrument panel programming.
