- Consequence
- The delayed parking brake application can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the valves and replace it free of charge. The recall began on October 5, 2006. Owners may contact prevost at 418-831-2046.

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