Prevost recall: Electrical system
What is wrong
Prevost is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 x3-45 coaches equipped with volvo d13 engines. The jump-start positive terminal block cable may be missing a protective sleeve, which may allow a short-circuit if it contacts other vehicle structures.
What could happen
If a short-circuit occurs, there is an increased risk of fire.
The fix
Prevost will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the cable and, as necessary, add protective tubing free of charge. The recall began on july 17, 2012. Owners may contact prevost at 1-418-883-2888.
