The problem
Gillig, LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2019-2023 Low Floor transit buses. The transmission yoke may separate, resulting in driveshaft separation and a sudden loss of drive power.
The risk
A sudden loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, a disabled bus may require an evacuation procedure in an uncontrolled traffic situation, increasing the risk of injury to passengers.
The fix
Gillig will work with the equipment manufacturer, Allison Transmission Inc., to inspect and tighten the transmission yoke bolts, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 11, 2023. Owners may contact Gillig customer service at 1-510-264-5073 or 1-800-735-1500.
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.
