Limited data — recalls on file

NCAP overall
1 NHTSA recall campaign on file. Recall repairs are free at franchised dealers.
Defect
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: ARTICULATED TRANSIT BUSES. THE REAR SECTION OF THE BUS COULD BECOME UNSTABLE AT HIGH SPEED IF ELECTRIC POWER IS LOST TO THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT FOR THE ARTICULATED STABILIZATION SYSTEM.
Consequence
LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL COULD OCCUR, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy
DEALERS WILL INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL HYDRAULIC SAFETY-DAMPENING UNIT TO THE BUS ARTICULATION HYDRAULIC SYSTEM.
The record is thin — 0 NHTSA complaints — so owner-report data can't strongly confirm reliability either way, though 1 recall should be verified as completed.
Yes — NHTSA lists 1 recall campaign affecting the 1996 Neoplan An460. Recall repairs are free at franchised dealers; check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm the work was done.
