What NHTSA recorded

Oversized rotors were installed in the powertrain drive motors in these buses.

Possible consequence

When the bus is in service and the oversized rotor inside the electric powertrain motor becomes heated, the rotor expands causing the motor to become sluggish, stall and could seize, failing completely.

Remedy

Northrup-grumman will perform the modification to these powertrain drive motors.
