Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Gillig, LLC is recalling 223 of its 2022-2023 Low Floor transit buses because the driveshaft fasteners may not have been tightened correctly during service repairs. This defect can allow the driveshaft to completely detach from the vehicle while it is in motion. Gillig will replace the driveshaft straps and fasteners for all affected vehicles free of charge.

Risk

If the driveshaft detaches, the driver may lose control of the bus, which significantly increases the risk of a crash and potential injury to passengers or others on the road.
