Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S.: Electrical System › Instrument Cluster/Panel
Temsa Global Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. reported this defect to federal regulators on Apr 10, 2013 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 228. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
Temsa Global is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 TS35C and 2012-2013 TS30 motor coach buses. First, the two service air brake pressure gauges are both reading the pressure of the same air tank. Second, the ABS system malfunction indicator light does not illuminate momentarily when the key is turned to the 'ON' or 'RUN' position. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 121, "Air Brake Systems."
The risk
Without accurate gauges, the driver may not notice the pressure change in the secondary brake system. The driver may also not be aware of an ABS issue without the bulb illuminating each time the key is turned on. Either issue increases the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Temsa will notify owners and they will update the software, free of charge. The recall began on June 3, 2013. Owners may contact Temsa Global at 1-404-602-0151.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 13V135000.
