ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:INTERLOCK/LOCKOUT

The defect
Gillig, LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Low Floor style transit buses. The high voltage electric air compressor may not be connected to the High Voltage Interlock Loop (HVIL). Therefore, the HVIL cannot detect a loose or disconnected compressor power cable.
What it can cause
Failure to alert the operator to a power cable issue can increase the risk of injury by electrical shock.
What the dealer does
Dealers will install an additional electrical harness, extending the HVIL loop to the air compressor, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 12, 2025. Owners may contact GILLIG customer service at 1-800-735-1500.
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 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 332 vehicles this is a small campaign: 54% 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, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Gillig vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 11 times before this, most recently in December 2024 as 24V921000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 15 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V190000 (equipment), 26V144000 (electrical system), 26V142000 (fuel system, diesel), 25V203000 (electrical system).

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 Gillig, LLC with NHTSA on December 20, 2024 as campaign 24V959000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
