Summary

Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. "Temsa" is recalling certain model year 2012 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured November 2011, to December 2011; 2013 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured September 2012, to April 2013; and 2014 TS30 motorcoaches manufactured July 2013, to April 2014. In the affected vehicles, the driver may have a hard time seeing oncoming traffic from the right side at an intersection where the angle is less than ninety degrees.

Consequence

The driver's reduced ability to easily see traffic approching from the right side increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Temsa will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional interior mirror to improve the driver's ability to see oncoming traffic, free of charge. The recall began on November 13, 2014. Owners may contact CH Bus Sales, US Agent for Temsa, at 1-877-858-3672.
