On certain buses, the push-button ignition switch could fail to return after being depressed. This would allow the engine to start unexpectedly when the ignition circuit is re-energized, which could injure someone working in the engine compartment. Correction: New Flyer will provide fleet operators with directives to inspect and replace both ignition switches (in the driveru2019s area, and in the engine compartment).
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2013177.
