Equipment
- What is wrong
- New Flyer of America, Inc. (New Flyer) is recalling certain 2015-2017 New Flyer XD40 and XN60, 2015 XD60 and XDE40 and 2013-2017 XN40 vehicles, equipped with certain Kidde Technologies, Inc. (KTI) KDS-25 fire extinguishers as part of the optional fire suppression system. The actuator of the extinguisher may not function properly, preventing the fire extinguisher from discharging the fire suppression agent in the event of a fire.
- Risk
- If the fire suppression system does not work as intended, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a fire.
- Remedy
- New Flyer has notified owners, and KTI will inspect the fire suppression systems and replace the electrical piston actuators, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on November 29, 2018. Owners may contact New Flyer customer service at 1‑204‑224‑6706. New Flyer's number for this recall is R18-020.

- What is wrong
- New Flyer of America, Inc. (New Flyer) is recalling certain 2014-2016 New Flyer XT60, 2014-2017 New Flyer XN60 and XD60, and 2015-2017 New Flyer XDE60 urban transit buses equipped with ZF Axles that have radial air disk brakes. Surface roughness of a guide pin in the radial brake calipers may cause the brake carriage guide pin support bolt to break. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
- Risk
- Breakage of the guide pin can cause a reduction of braking ability and an increase in stopping distances, or a loss of tire pressure, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- New Flyer will notify owners, and dealers will install a bushing kit and reinstall the brake calipers, free of charge. The recall began June 29, 2018. Owners may contact New Flyer customer service at 1‑204‑224‑6706. New Flyer's number for this recall is R18-010.
