Manufacturer Name : Prevost Car (US) Inc.
Address : 260 Banker Road
PLATTSBURGH NY 12901
Company phone : 999
Population :
Number of potentially involved : 16,974
Estimated percentage with defect : 100 %
Equipment Information :
Brand / Trade 1 : Prevost Car (US) inc.
Model : Non applicable
Part No. : See Involved comp.
Size : Multiple sizes
Function : Alternator belt
Descriptive Information : All belts corresponding to part numbers indicated are considered not to be
adequate for the service to which they are been currently used.
Production Dates : JAN 01, 2015 – APR 05, 2022
Description of Defect :
Description of the Defect : A small percentage of Prevost units have experienced thermal events due to the
rigidity of alternator belts in the event of failure on the alternator front bearing.
FMVSS 1 : NR
FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : In some cases, when alternator’s front bearing fails, it could overheats
causing a local thermal event.
Description of the Cause : With this type of belts, in event of front bearing seize, belt may continue to
drive the alternator causing abnormal friction for a longer period of time than
the old belts.
Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur :
