As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 24V179000.
Defect description
Prevost Car (US) Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2024 H3-45 and H3-45 VIP vehicles. The grommet that protects the battery cables passing through a metallic panel was improperly installed, allowing the cables to chafe on the edges of the panel and potentially short circuit.
Safety consequence
An electrical short circuit increases the risk of a fire. Additionally, a vehicle fire may require an evacuation procedure in an uncontrolled traffic situation, increasing the risk of injury to passengers.
Manufacturer remedy
Prevost will inspect and reinstall the grommet, if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 8, 2024. Owners may contact Prevost customer service at 1-866-870-2046. Prevost's number for this recall is SR24-12.
