Defect

Motiv Power Systems, Inc. (Motiv) is recalling certain 2020 F-59 school buses equipped with a Motiv Gen 5 EPIC powertrain. A support bracket may fatigue and break, allowing the main power disconnect to contact other structures and short.

Consequence

An electrical short can shut down the high voltage system, resulting in a loss of drive power and increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective action

Motiv field support technicians will replace the bracket, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 9, 2025. Owners may contact Motiv customer service at 1-650-458-4804.
