VP-44 Equipped School Buses and the NHTSA

[Greenleaf]

There was a formal complaint filed by Crestwood Local Schools. It seems that the 504 Campaign didn't fix the problem... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... DUH!



How would replacing a faulty injection pump/ lift pump system with the same injection pump/lift pump solve the problem?



Seems the buses are still dropping out of service after the 504 is completed.



We now have a warning light that alerts the driver there is an "issue" with the engine. Not so much lift pump supply, but rather an engine problem.



Gotta wonder what the NHTSA will do now... .....

if you get a 779 fault code(low fuel preseure) after the 504 recall is completed there is another recall which is another lift pump and a reprograming the ecm... again.

we have a customer that was replacing a lift pump probably every other week. now that the last recall was done only one has failed in the last couple of months
