The problem

Coach and equipment is recalling certain model year 2006-2010 buses equipped with carrier genv em-1 evaporator units. Due to time, temperature, and/or vibration, the fuse may loosen in the fuse holder resulting in high resistance and arcing.

The risk

If sufficient arcing occurs, the fuse holder may melt, and may be accompanied by flame, smoke and potential fire.

The fix

Coach and equipment will notify owners and provide information on how to obtain the retrofit kit from carrier along with repair instructions. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on march 16, 2011. Owners may contact carrier hotline at 1-800-793-4741 or coach and equipment at 315-536-2321, extension 1212.
