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.

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 engine heat exchanger hose may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, coolant could leak and cause a loss of power to the wheels.

Safety Risk:
A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. A bus that is disabled could result in a transfer of passengers in an uncontrolled environment, which may create a risk of injury.

Corrective Actions:
Nova Bus will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to replace the heat exchanger hose.

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.
