Lion Electric Company: LionC School Buses Recalled for Reduced Braking and Steering Loss

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Lion Electric Company is recalling 100 of its 2023-2024 LionC school buses. An incorrectly installed battery connector can allow water to build up and cause a loss of connection to one of the high-voltage batteries. If this connection is lost, the driver may experience a sudden loss of power steering and reduced braking power, which can lead to a crash. Lion Electric will inspect, reinstall, and replace the connector as needed for free.

Risk

The faulty connector allows water to accumulate, which causes the high-voltage battery number 4 to disconnect. This disconnection results in the loss of power steering assist and decreased braking performance, making the vehicle difficult to control and increasing the risk of an accident.
