Recall 14V783000 · manufacturer campaign TSB1415
Visibility › Glass, Side/rear — Arboc · reported 9 Dec 2014 · 43 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
ARBOC Specialty Vehicles, LLC (ARBOC) is recalling certain model year 2015 Spirit of Mobility transit buses manufactured June 23, 2014, to November 21, 2014. The affected vehicles were manufactured with driver side transition windows that were not safety stamped. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 205 "Glazing Materials."
The risk
A broken window can create glass shards, increasing the risk of personal injury.
The fix
ARBOC will notify owners, and dealers will replace the window, free of charge. The recall began on December 19, 2014. Owners may contact ARBOC customer service at 1-574-825-1720. ARBOC's number for this recall is TSB1415.
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.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
