Issued by Grech Motors, L.L.C · Reported Jan 30, 2015 · 118 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Grech Motors L.L.C. (Grech) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 G40M2 shuttle buses built on Freightliner M2 truck chassis, manufactured August 26, 2013, to December 10, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the batteries may not be installed in the correct position which could allow the positive battery terminals and clamps to contact the grounded battery retention bracket.

Consequence

If the positive battery terminals contact the retention bracket, an electrical short would result, increasing the risk of a fire.

Remedy

Grech will notify owners, and dealers will correct the battery installation, free of charge. The recall began in March 17, 2015. Owners may contact Grech customer service at 1-855-994-7324.
