2009-2010 Goshen Buses Recall 13V410: Door Board Overheat

Recall 13V410 affects 709 2009-2010 Goshen Gc Ii, Pacer Ii, Sentinel, G-Force, and Wolverine buses for overheating door-header boards. Repair is free at Goshen dealers.

Goshen is recalling 709 2009-2010 Wolverine, Gc Ii, Pacer Ii, Sentinel, and G-Force buses equipped with A&M Systems door headers that contain model 3230 circuit boards. Voltage spikes can damage the board and create high resistance; overheating raises the risk of a fire, and the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The door header on these 2009-2010 Goshen Wolverine, Gc Ii, Pacer Ii, Sentinel, and G-Force buses is the electrical assembly mounted at the passenger door opening. In the affected buses, that header contains an A&M Systems model 3230 circuit board. The board carries electrical current through small circuits so the door equipment receives the power and signals it needs.

The problem starts when voltage spikes hit that board. A voltage spike is a sudden jump in electrical pressure. On these buses, that spike can damage electrical components and circuit paths inside the board. The damaged board then develops high resistance, which means current has a harder time moving through the circuit and the door electrical equipment does not get normal power flow.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner or driver should not rely on a dashboard light, sound, smell, or door behavior to confirm the defect before the circuit board fails.

Who's affected?

Covers five Goshen bus models from the 2009 and 2010 model years, all tied to the same electrical equipment component.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific bus is included.

What's the safety risk?

High electrical resistance in the door header circuit board can overheat the board and increase the risk of a fire. Contact a Goshen dealer for recall status before continued regular use. Repair will be free at any franchised Goshen dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2009-2010 Goshen Wolverine, Gc Ii, Pacer Ii, Sentinel, or G-Force bus is included in this recall.
  2. Wait for Goshen's owner notice before scheduling if you have not received recall instructions.
  3. Call Goshen customer service at 1-574-970-6300 with questions and reference recall number 13V410.
  4. Bring the recall notice to a franchised Goshen dealer for the free door-header inspection and circuit-board replacement that addresses overheating in the electrical board.

What happens at the repair

Goshen's recall remedy calls for the dealer to inspect the door header and replace any defective circuit board, free of charge. The work centers on the A&M Systems door header circuit board, where voltage spikes can damage electrical parts and create high resistance. Because the repair status is not listed as available in this record, do not assume the final dealer repair can be scheduled until the dealer confirms it. Once available, the recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered.
