The defect
Volvo Bus Corporation (Volvo Bus) is recalling certain 2022 9700 buses. The GPS devices may have been installed incorrectly, which can cause an accelerator pedal sensor malfunction and lead to an unexpected loss of drive power.
The risk
A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, a disabled bus may require an evacuation procedure in an uncontrolled traffic situation, increasing the risk of injury to passengers.
