What's wrong?
The right front turn signal on the 2022-2024 Prevost H3-45 Vip and H3-45 is part of the right handlamp assembly. Its job is to flash when the driver signals a turn or activates the hazard lights, so traffic around the coach can see the intended movement. That signal depends on the lamp, wiring, and electronic control unit working together.
On affected coaches, the headlight wiring design does not include the added resistance needed to keep the signal circuit within the electronic control unit's current limit. When the turn signal or hazard lights are activated, the right front lamp can draw too much current. The control unit then turns on overcurrent protection, which shuts the lamp down instead of letting it flash.
There is no warning sign before failure. The issue shows up when the right front turn signal or hazard lamp does not illuminate after the driver activates it.

What's the safety risk?
An inoperative front turn signal leaves other drivers without a clear turn cue, and failed hazard warning lights make the vehicle less visible when hazards are needed. There is no warning sign before this lighting fault. Schedule the repair soon and use extra care around turns or roadside stops. Repair is free at any franchised Prevost dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022-2024 Prevost H3-45 Vip or H3-45 is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Prevost dealer to schedule the free enhanced headlight-wiring repair that fixes the right front turn signal and hazard-light failure.
- Bring the recall notice if Prevost mailed one, and reference recall number 23V474 when you call.
