New Flyer of America, Inc. is recalling approximately 1,196 transit buses from various model lines spanning years 2021 to 2026. These buses are equipped with Accelera ELFA 3 control systems (versions V1 and V2) that contain a software error. This error can cause the buses to accelerate or decelerate unexpectedly while in operation, which can lead to a crash. New Flyer will provide a free update to the inverter software to resolve this issue.
A software error in the vehicle's inverter may cause the bus to speed up or slow down without driver input. This unpredictable vehicle behavior significantly increases the risk of a collision.
