Issue: On certain buses, the brake lines for the rear wheels may not have been connected to the antilock braking system (ABS) control module properly. As a result, the ABS and stability control may not work correctly. Note: This recall only affects certain buses built on a Chevrolet chassis. Safety Risk: An antilock braking system that doesn't work correctly could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: ARBOC will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to reroute and reconnect the rear brake lines correctly.

U.S. NHTSA recalls
01- STRUCTURE:EMERGENCY:ESCAPE/EGRESS/EXIT#19V870000
ARBOC Specialty Vehicles, LLC (ARBOC) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Spirit of Freedom and Spirit of Mobility vehicles equipped with Specialty Prolo Roof Hatches. The roof hatch external handle may unexpectedly break under reasonable use. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."
Risk: If the roof hatch external handle breaks, in the event of an emergency, the hatch cannot be easily opened from outside the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: ARBOC will notify owners, and Specialty will replace the roof hatch handles free of charge. The recall began December 19, 2019. Owners may contact ARBOC customer service at 1-866-953-5555 or Specialty customer service at 1-800-951-7867.
