2015.0 New Flyer Xe40 - Lights And Instruments

Recall Summary New Flyer is recalling 126 transit buses from model years 2015-2026 because a software issue prevents the hazard lamp dashboard indicators from working when the ignition is off. This could leave drivers unaware their hazard lamps are on, potentially confusing other drivers and increasing crash risk. New Flyer will contact owners with instructions to update the vehicle software themselves or arrange for a technician to do the repair.
