NHTSA recall 24V921000
Electrical system › Instrument panel › Speedometer/odometer
Gillig Low Floor
The defect
Gillig, LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2023 Low Floor diesel-hybrid transit buses. During vehicle operations in full electric vehicle (EV) mode, the odometer will not display accumulated mileage. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Controls and Displays."
The risk
A missing odometer reading could lead to an unintended delay in critical safety-related maintenance, potentially impairing the safe operation of the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Gillig will install a new speedometer gauge, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 20, 2024. Owners may contact Gillig customer service at 1-800-735-1500 or 1-510-264-5073.
