What is wrong
PARKER HANNIFIN IS RECALLING CERTAIN INSTRUMENT PANELS, PART NUMBER 385755, DEVELOPED SPECIFICALLY FOR USE ON NEW FLYER TRANSIT BUSES. DUE TO A SOFTWARE DESIGN DEFECT, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL MAY NOT, UNDER UNIQUE AND ABNORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, DISPLAY WARNNG MESSAGES WHICH HAVE BEEN TRANSMITTED IN AN EXTENDED BYTE FORMAT.
What can happen
WITHOUT WARNING MESSAGES, THE DRIVER MAY CONTINUE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT GOES INTO A SAFE MODE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A REDUCTION OF POWER OR POSSIBLY A STALL. EITHER CONDITION INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
