Novabus center-line height of the brake lights and tail lights is too high, exceeding the maximum height standard.
The short version
Nova Bus reported a problem with the exterior lighting brake lights. Here is what owners need to know.
The center-line height of the brake lights and tail lights is too high, exceeding the maximum height standard. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Reduced visibility of the brake and tail lights can increase the risk of a crash.
Nova will notify owners, and provide instructions for interchanging the positions of the brake light and tail light components with the turn signal light components, free of charge.
