Prevost Car "US" Inc. "Prevost" is recalling certain 2021-2023 Prevost X3-45 Commuter motorcoaches. The driver's seat is equipped with a Type 1 seat belt instead of the correct Type 2 seat belt. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
An incorrect seat belt may not adequately protect the driver during a crash, increasing the risk of an injury.
Prevost will replace the driver's seat and seat belt, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 16, 2023. Owners may contact Prevost's customer service at 1-866-870-2046.
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.
