Prevost Car (US) Inc. is recalling 50 of its 2021 and 2023 X3-45 Commuter buses because a bolt that secures the passenger seat recline mechanism can loosen and fall out. This defect causes the seat back to become unsecured, which also affects the integrated seat belt system. To fix this, Prevost will inspect the seats, apply a Loctite adhesive to the bolts, and properly tighten them to ensure they stay in place.
If the seat back and integrated seat belt are not properly secured, they will not be able to correctly restrain a passenger during a crash. This significantly increases the risk of injury to the occupant in the event of an accident.
