- The problem
- Startrans is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2010 transit buses equipped with carrier genv em-1 evaporator units. Due to time, temperature, and/or vibration, the fuse may loosen in the fuse holder resulting in high resistance and arcing.
- The risk
- If sufficient arcing occurs, the fuse holder may melt, and a vehicle fire may occur.
- The fix
- Startrans will notify owners and provide information on how to obtain the retrofit kit from carrier along with repair instructions. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on april 18, 2011. (See carrier's recall campaign 11e-003.) Owners may contact carrier at 1-800-793-4741 or startrans at 1- 877-258-1391.
