Details

MFR Campaign Number: NR (Not Reported)
Recall Type: Vehicle
Defect Summary: On certain motor coaches equipped with zf/arens as tronic shift selectors, a cell phone placed in the proximity of the shifter touch pad could cause the display to change from "r" (reverse) to "d" (drive) should the phone receive a call.
Consequence Summary: This interference can cause improper shifting of the transmission, as forward gear can be engaged from neutral only, if the vehicle has been stopped, and if the brake pedal has been depressed. if the malfunction occurs while 'r' (reverse) is being selected, the shifter may possibly change to 'd' (drive), increasing the risk of a crash.
