Details

MFR Campaign Number: SR07-10

Recall Type: Vehicle

Defect Summary: On certain motor coaches equipped with zf/arens astronic 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 the transmission to not operate or cause improper shifting, 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.

Corrective Action: Prevost will mail stickers and installation instructions to their owners and will also arrange to have the transmission software upgraded. the recall began on february 13, 2008. owners may contact prevost at 1-418-831-5432.
