Transport Canada carries this recall as 2024034, dated 24 January 2024. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 24V033, dated 19 January 2024. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, CR5546.

The two registers are 5 days apart: the American entry is dated first, the Canadian one second.

These are the dates each register records against its own notice. They are separate administrative acts in two countries, recorded by two authorities under two sets of rules, and this page does not claim that one caused the other or that owners in either country were contacted on those days. What it shows is that the same manufacturer campaign reached the two registers on different dates.

Read the American notice 24V033, including every earlier version of its wording this site holds. The Canadian register explains why the manufacturer code is published there and what that makes possible. Canada and America sets every matched pair side by side.

Nova Bus LFS ARTIC in the other registers

This site holds seven national and European registers. Nova Bus LFS ARTIC is named on 16 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

The American register

Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Issue:
On certain transit buses, the window glass may have an incorrect marking. As a result, this could lead you to install the wrong type of glass. Canadian regulations require a marking to identify the type of glass that is used.
UPDATE - After the company notified Transport Canada about this problem, they determined that there are no Canadian buses affected by it. Accordingly, this safety recall was withdrawn.

Safety Risk:
There is no safety risk, as Canadian vehicles were not built with the recalled parts.

Corrective Action:
This is not a recall. This notice is for information only.

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 2024034.

Reading this against the source

This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.

This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Nova Bus LFS Artic, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Nova Bus: 131 in the register, and 672 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2024.
