Has your Neoplan 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 Neoplan dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

1997 Neoplan AN440 recalls, newest first

July 21, 2003NHTSA 03V25400036 vehicles potentially affected

Vehicle speed control

Summary
On certain buses equipped with cummins electronic control modules on the C8.3G and L10G engines, the ECM does not have the ability to detect a throttle fail-safe engine shutdown command. This could result in an unanticipated, uncommanded open throttle condition without warning.
Consequence
If this event occurs, the vehicle operator will not have control of the engine speed, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
Remedy
Cummins will notify the customers and replace the ECM. Owners should contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or neoplan at 719-336-3256, ext. 476.

Fuel system, other › Delivery › Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings

Summary
Vehicle description: transit coaches equipped with cummins L-10 engines and nelson catalysts and sold to los angeles, california transit authority. The catalyst can experience high temperatures, which could be caused from unburned methane igniting inside the catalyst brick.
Consequence
This condition can result in extreme overheating of the catalyst and could cause ignition of surrounding combustibles in close proximity to the catalyst.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the vehicles for proper installation and positioning; increase the size of the fiberglass hole surrounding the tail pipe, remove a rubber air inlet boot that was too close to the catalyst; replace the flex pipe in the exhaust system; and add a blanket around the catalyst to provide added insulation.
