## What the record says

- **Product**: VICINITY VI33 (2017) - Recall 24V385000
- **Reason**: Vicinity Motor Corporation (Vicinity) is recalling certain 2017 Vi33 and 2022 Vi35 buses powered by compressed natural gas (CNG).

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 304, "Compressed Natural Gas Fuel Container Integrity." A compressed natural gas leak can result in a fire or explosion, increasing the risk of injury.
