- The problem
- Van hool is recalling certain model year 2002 through 2011 transit buses and motorcoaches manufactured from august 2002 through october 2010, equipped with hadley remote mirror switches, part numbers 509vh and 509vh1f. The rear view mirror switch may overheat, causing the plastic housing to melt.
