  Problème : Sur certains véhicules, si le palier avant de l'alternateur tombait en panne, les courroies de l'alternateur pourraient continuer à faire tourner l'alternateur. Cela pourrait entraîner une surchauffe du palier de l'alternateur. Risques pour la sécurité : Une surchauffe du palier de l'alternateur pourrait entraîner un risque d'incendie. Mesures correctives : Prévost doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur véhicule à un centre de service Prévost pour faire remplacer les courroies de l'alternateur. Pour diminuer les risques pour la sécurité, Prévost recommande d'inspecter régulièrement le palier avant de l'alternateur, et de ne pas faire fonctionner le moteur si l'alternateur est défectueux.

  Sur certains autobus, une pince de retenue de conduite de carburant pourrait être absente, ce qui pourrait faire en sorte que la conduite de carburant frotte contre un tuyau souple tressé de liquide de refroidissement. En cas de contact, la conduite de carburant pourrait être compromise au fil du temps, ce qui pourrait causer une vaporisation de carburant sur des composants chauds du système d'échappement et, par conséquent, déclencher un incendie moteur pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter et remplacer la conduite de carburant, au besoin, et s'assurer que les conduites de carburant et de liquide de refroidissement sont fixées bien en place.
