Proterra Operating Company, Inc. is recalling 3 of its 2022 ZX5 transit buses because the interlock override switch was not installed during production. Without this switch, drivers may be unable to move the bus if the interlock system engages, forcing passengers to transfer to another vehicle. Proterra will provide all necessary parts and installation instructions to owners to fix this issue free of charge.
If the interlock system engages and cannot be overridden, the bus will become immobilized, potentially in an unsafe location. This necessitates a passenger transfer, which increases the risk of injury to passengers and other road users.
Free interlock override switch and installation instructions.
