- Summary
- Certain transit buses fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps reflective devices, and associated equipment." the flashing deceleration lamps were an optional item for some of these buses.

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