• Sièges et dispositifs de retenue#201833921 juin 2018

  14 unités visées

  Sur certains autobus, les rondelles utilisées pour fixer la ceinture de sécurité du conducteur au montant milieu pourraient se fissurer à cause d'une erreur de fabrication. Si cela se produisait, une rondelle fissurée pourrait tomber de la zone de fixation de ceinture de sécurité, ce qui ferait en sorte que la sangle de la ceinture de sécurité deviendrait lâche et augmenterait les risques de blessures en cas d'accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer toutes les rondelles visées.

  Sur certains autobus, les rondelles utilisées pour fixer les sièges au plancher de l'autobus pourraient avoir subi un traitement thermique inadéquat.

Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer toutes les rondelles visées par des rondelles à dureté adéquate.
