Prevost recall: Electrical system
What is wrong
Prevost Car (US) Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2023 X3-45 and X3-45 VIP Entertainer motor coaches. The grommet that protects the electrical power distribution cables passing through a metallic panel is insufficient, allowing the cables to chafe on the edges of the panel and potentially short circuit.
What could happen
An electrical short circuit increases the risk of a fire. Additionally, a vehicle fire may require an evacuation procedure in an uncontrolled traffic situation, increasing the risk of injury to passengers.
The fix
Prevost will inspect, and replace the grommet if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 8, 2023. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-866-870-2046. Prevost's number for this recall is SR23-13.
