On certain buses, the Type II auto reset circuit breaker temperatures may exceed the rating of the circuit board. This could cause the board to melt, potentially resulting in a vehicle fire. If this occurs while the vehicle is underway, it could cause a vehicle crash resulting in property damage and/or personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the auto reset circuit breakers with manual circuit breakers and jumper cables.
