EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL
- The defect
- Nova Bus (US) Inc. (Nova Bus) is recalling certain 2021-2023 LFS transit buses equipped with a directional foot switch. The turn signals may intermittently become inoperative.
- What it can cause
- Inoperative turn signals may not notify other drivers of a turning vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Nova Bus will inspect and repair the directional foot switch wiring, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2023. Owners may contact Nova Bus customer service at 1-800-350-6682. Nova Bus's number for this recall is CR5507.
- 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 718 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 55% of the 17,253 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one. The middle campaign among them covers 479. It covers model years 2021 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Nova Bus vehicles have been recalled over the exterior lighting 4 times before this, most recently in April 2023 as 23V239000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 45 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V712000 (fuel system, diesel), 26V624000 (equipment), 26V573000 (engine and engine cooling), 26V355000 (service brakes, air).
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 Nova Bus (US) Inc. with NHTSA on November 11, 2023 as campaign 23V762000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
