What is wrong
Prevost Car (US) Inc. (Prevost) is recalling certain 2021 X3-45 commuter buses.

What can happen
During a crash, the rear seats could separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of an injury.

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.
