- Daimler Vans USA is recalling certain 2020-2023 Mercedes-Benz Metris vehicles. The electrical connections for the infotainment system may not be properly secured, which can cause the rearview camera image not to display. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility." A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says 43,422 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Motor Coach Industries is recalling certain 2025 D4520, D45CRTLE, D45CRT, J3500, and 2025-2026 J4500 buses. The emergency exit label may be placed in the incorrect location. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to FMVSS number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release." Incorrectly located labels may prevent or delay the use of the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury. NHTSA says 321 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Shyft Group is recalling certain 2015-2025 Utilimaster Truck Body vehicles. The signal converter may fail, which can cause the brake lights and turn signals to become inoperative. Inoperative turn signals and brake lights can fail to alert other road users to the driver's intentions to turn or stop, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says 2,785 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Shyft Group is recalling certain 2024-2025 Blue ARC BA4L-800 vehicles. The spacer for the brake caliper may be too big, resulting in an increased air gap. A brake caliper with an increased air gap may prevent the parking brake from properly engaging, allowing the vehicle to rollaway and increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says 150 units are potentially affected by the recall.
