NEW Flyer D40LF

NEW Flyer D40LF

Published

Model years
2008–2009

On certain vehicles, an inspection panel located above the driveshaft, in the passenger compartment flooring, may not be of sufficient strength to prevent foreign matter from entering the passenger area in the event of a driveshaft failure. Although New Flyer previously attempted to remedy this problem by installed energy absorbing honeycomb material to the underside of the access panel, this fix was inadequate. Failure of the driveshaft access panel to maintain passenger compartment integrity could result in personal injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will remove the energy absorbing material from the access panel and install a steel plate. Note: This recall supersedes recall 2010056. Vehicles that were repaired under the previous campaign will also need to be repaired under this campaign.
