Nova Bus LFS Recall 26V077: Passenger seats can crack loose and fall to the floor

What this recall means for you

Certain Nova Bus LFS transit buses from model years 2013 through 2019, and LFS Artic buses from 2019 and 2020, have passenger seats with Double Transversal design. The seat mounting rails can crack, which may cause the seat to detach and fall to the floor.

A seat that falls unexpectedly raises the risk of injury to passengers in or near the seat. Owners of affected buses should contact Nova Bus customer service at 1-450-472-6410. Nova Bus will replace the attachment brackets free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 2, 2026.

You can check whether your vehicle's VIN is involved in this recall by searching NHTSA.gov, where the affected VINs will be searchable beginning December 4, 2026. Repairs should be performed by the manufacturer's remedy process.
