The problem

New Flyer of America, Inc. (New Flyer) is recalling certain 2022 XE40 transit buses. The speedometer may not illuminate when the headlights are turned on. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Controls and Displays."

The risk

An unlit speedometer cannot show the vehicle's speed, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

New Flyer will update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 15, 2026. Owners may contact New Flyer's customer service at 1-800-241-2947.
