What's wrong

Glaval Bus is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 Entourage, Sport, Universal, Titan, Titan II, Apollo, Primetime, Concorde, and Concorde II transit buses manufactured August 4, 2009, through June 7, 2010 and equipped with A&M Systems-brand electric door actuators. Voltage spikes may damage electrical components and electrical circuits within the actuator, causing the circuit board to develop high resistance.

The risk

High resistance may cause the circuit board to overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

The fix

Glaval Bus will notify owners and dealers will replace the circuit board, free of charge. The recall began on November 14, 2013. Owners may contact Glaval Bus at 1-574-262-2212.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
