The problem
Prevost Cars, Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Prevost X3-45 vehicles. The vehicles were manufactured without the front amber reflex reflectors. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
The missing reflex reflectors may reduce the side visibility of the vehicle in certain conditions, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Prevost will notify owners, and dealers will install the missing front amber reflex reflectors, free of charge. The recall began on May 30, 2017. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-866-870-2046. Prevost's number for this recall is SR17-15.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
