Summary: If a passenger tries to exit the lavatory compartment by pushing with his back against the lavatory window and his legs against the lavatory door, the window can separate.
Consequence: If the window separates, the occupant can fall through the window and suffer severe and/or extreme injuries.
Remedy: Dealers will install a rail in the lavatory compartment window so that lavatory occupants can press against the rail rather than the window, and to help the passenger to keep balance while the vehicle is moving.

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.

Check your VIN with NHTSA

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.
