2022 Vicinity VI35 recalls
Recall 24V-385: Fuel System, Other
Problem: Vicinity Motor Corporation (Vicinity) is recalling certain 2017 Vi33 and 2022 Vi35 buses powered by compressed natural gas (CNG). The low-pressure CNG hoses and fittings are insufficient and may leak. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 304, "Compressed Natural Gas Fuel Container Integrity."
Risk: A compressed natural gas leak can result in a fire or explosion, increasing the risk of injury.
Fix: Owners are advised to remove the vehicles from service until the final remedy becomes available. Dealers will replace the low pressure CNG hoses, free of charge. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed August 1, 2024. A second notice will be sent once the remedy becomes available.

Risk: A damaged tank can leak natural gas, increasing the risk of a fire.
Fix: As an interim repair, dealers will inspect and adjust the mounting structure. If the vehicle's mounting structure cannot be adjusted, owners are advised not to drive their vehicle until the supporting member is replaced.
