The problem
Proterra Operating Company, Inc. (Proterra) is recalling certain 2022 ZX5 transit buses. The interlock override switch was not installed during production.
The risk
Without the switch, the driver may be unable to override the interlock system and move the bus, necessitating the transfer of passengers to another bus and increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Proterra will provide installation instructions and an interlock override switch, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 9, 2023. Owners may contact Proterra customer service at 1-864-438-0000.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
