For the 2001 Chance Opus 29. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your Chance been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Chance dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2001 Chance Opus 29 recalls, newest first

March 19, 2003NHTSA 03V056000203 vehicles potentially affected

Visibility › Windshield wiper/washer › Switch/wiring

Summary
On certain diesel buses, the two-speed windshield wiper switch can cause the low speed wiper relay to chatter causing the windshield wiper motor to overheat.
Consequence
When the windshield wiper motor overheats, it causes the 15 amp windshield wiper fuse to open protecting the circuit. This results in the loss of windshield wiper operation. Loss of visibility can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the wiper switch. Owner notification began on February 17, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact optima bus at 1-316-779-7700.

Visibility › Defroster/defogger/HVAC system › Heater core

Summary
On certain coaches, chaffing of the driver's left console heat duct flexhose between the 300 amp circuit breaker lug and the battery hold-down weldment occurs.
Consequence

Remedy
A safety bulletin containing instructions and the parts required to insulate the terminal lug on the 300A circuit breaker will be provided to the owners. Owner notification began October 7, 2002.

Vehicle speed control

Summary
On certain buses equipped with electronic throttle control/accelerator pedals supplied by williams controls industries, the weld attaching the clevis to the plate has insufficient penetration and could allow the clevis to separate from the plate.
Consequence
If the clevis separated from the plate while the vehicle was in use, the vehicle would return to idle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Chance coach recommends that owners inspect their vehicles and install the part kit provided by chance coach. Owners who do not receive the free parts and instructions within a reasonable time should contact chance coach at 1-888-391-1777.
