- Summary
- Coach and equipment is recalling certain buses equipped with trans air ta 73 evaporators. The evaporator utilizes a power resistor to regulate blower speed. Should a short occur in the "low or medium speed" circuit while the blower is in high speed, the short will cause the supply voltage to feedback through the resistor to ground, not drawing enough current to trip the fuse.
- Consequence
- This would cause the resistor temperature to rise to a point where it will melt and possibly ignite the plastic blower housing to which it is mounted. The overheating can result in a fire.
- Remedy
- Coach and equipment in cooperation with trans air will install a thermal shutdown device in series with the speed resistors. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on December 29, 2010. Owners may contact trans air warranty and service center at 1-800-673-2446.

Has your Coach and Equipment 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 Coach and Equipment dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
