    Questions

    What are the most common New Flyer XE60 problems?

    0 owner complaints are on record with NHTSA.

    Is a complaint or a TSB the same as a recall?

    No. A complaint is an unverified report from an owner. A technical service bulletin (TSB) is the manufacturer telling dealers how to fix a known issue; it is not a safety recall and is usually covered only under warranty. A recall is a formal safety action, and its repair is free.

    How do I report a problem with my New Flyer XE60?

    File a vehicle safety complaint at NHTSA.gov. NHTSA reads every report, and patterns of complaints are what open defect investigations and, eventually, recalls.
