Problem Prevost Cars, Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2016-2017 H3-45 motor coaches. The affected vehicles have wiper arms that can crack where they mount to the wiper motor causing the wiper arms to bend or detach from the vehicle. Risk A loss of wiper function can reduce the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix Prevost will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace the windshield wiper mounts, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 22, 2017. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-866-870-2046. Prevost's number for this recall is SR17-09.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. SR17-09 is the number Prevost assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 17V296000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Which vehicles does SR17-09 cover?

2016–2017 Prevost H3-45, 123 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.
