Summary

Daimler Trucks North America is recalling 52 Thomas Built Buses, specifically the 2023-2025 Saf-T-Liner EFX and 2023-2026 Saf-T-Liner HDX models. The heater hose clamps in these vehicles may not have been tightened properly, which can cause the hose to detach. If this happens, hot heating coolant can leak into the passenger compartment, posing a danger to anyone on board. Dealers will inspect and replace the hose clamps as necessary, free of charge.

Risk

If the heater hose disconnects, hot coolant can spray or leak into the passenger area. This poses a direct risk of severe burns to occupants upon contact with the liquid.
