ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- The defect
- Prevost Car (US) Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2024 H3-45, 2023-2024 H3-45 VIP, X3-45 VIP, X3-45 VIP Entertainer, and 2023 X3-45 motor coaches. The grid heater cables that connect to the relay may have a loose connection and cause the relay to overheat.
- What it can cause
- A relay that overheats can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Prevost will inspect and replace damaged components, and tighten the grid heater relay nuts, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 30, 2023. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-908-222-7211. Prevost's number for this recall is SR23-42.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 204 vehicles this is a small campaign: 61% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2023, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Prevost vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 18 times before this, most recently in April 2023 as 23V246000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 13 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V523000 (equipment adaptive/mobility), 24V213000 (equipment), 24V179000 (electrical system), 24V178000 (steering).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Prevost Car (US) Inc. with NHTSA on November 10, 2023 as campaign 23V761000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
