2016 Glaval Bus Concorde II recalls

Recall 16V-377: Parking Brake

Reported May 27, 2016 · 6 vehicles affected · Forest River, Inc.

Problem: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Glaval Concorde and Concorde II transit buses manufactured December 30, 2015, to May 13, 2016 and built on Ford chassis. The clip that connects the hand operated parking brake actuator cable to the intermediate parking brake cable may fail.

Risk: If the parking brake cable connector clip fails, the vehicle may unexpectedly roll, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Forest River will notify owners, and Ford dealers will replace the parking brake cable connector clip, free of charge. The recall began on July 1, 2016. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Forest River's number for this recall is 35-05242016-0200.

Recall 16V-217: Structure

Reported Apr 14, 2016 · 1,860 vehicles affected · Forest River, Inc.

(Forest River) is recalling certain 2008-2016 Glaval Bus Apollo, Concorde II, Entourage, Legacy, Primetime, Sport, Titan, Titan II, and Titan II Low Floor transit buses manufactured from August 1, 2008, through March 6, 2016. The labels on the rear emergency exit window are not located within 16 centimeters of the release mechanisms as required.

Risk: If the label is not located the correct distance from the mechanism, it may hinder an occupant's ability to open the emergency window and escape from the vehicle quickly in the event of an emergency.
