Transport Canada recalls

Wheels#2015263June 15, 2015
16 units affected
On certain buses, the wheel hub carrier on the drive axles may crack due to a manufacturing defect. This could cause a loss of vehicle stability, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the affected wheel hub carrier.
Brakes#2015009January 9, 2015
2 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with ZF front axles, incorrect routing may allow the brake hose to rub the front tire under certain conditions. This could eventually cause the brake hose protective cover and hose braiding to wear through, resulting in loss of or reduced air pressure to the front brake chamber during brake application. This could reduce braking system performance and increase stopping distances, or cause uneven brake application on the front axle, potentially affecting vehicle control. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace and re-route the front axle brake hoses.
Seats And Restraints#2014118April 8, 2014
88 units affected
On certain motor coaches equipped with passenger seats having 3-point seat belts, the seat mounting tracks for the second row of passenger seats may have been improperly welded. This could allow the seats to separate from their attachment points when subjected to high loads, such as in a crash. This could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install reinforcement bolts.
