Issue

On certain buses, the grid heater power wire may have been routed incorrectly and could chafe against the chassis frame rail. Continued contact could wear through the wire’s insulation, which could cause an electrical short circuit. An electrical short could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, reroute the grid heater power wire.
