The defect
Setra of North America (Setra) is recalling certain 2017 Setra S407CC motor coaches. The vehicle's exterior covers which are bonded to powder coated frames may detach from the vehicle because the powder coating may peel off of the frame.
The risk
Any panels that detach can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
The affected vehicles have not been sold to customers and are still in inventory. They will be repaired by the US importer, prior to being put into service. Therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued. Owners may contact Setra customer service at 1-800-241-2947. Setra's number for this recall is 98.10M10519A.

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 17V329000.
