What's wrong

Motor Coach Industries, Inc. (MCI) is recalling certain model year 2014 D4000, D4005, D4000ISTV, D4500, D4505, and J4500 motor coaches manufactured July 2013 to April 2014. The multiplex electrical systems controller may unintentionally turn off the vehicle's headlights while the vehicle is in gear.

The risk

If the headlights turn off while the vehicle is in operation, the driver's visibility may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

MCI will notify owners, and dealers will update the multiplex controller software, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact MCI customer service at 1-800-241-2947. MCI's number for this recall is 413.

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.
