07- Accessories#2015522
47 units affected
On certain school buses equipped with a Ricon wheelchair lift, the lift platform sides may crack, which could cause the lift to lean against the vehicle door(s) and potentially fall out of the vehicle when the doors are opened, putting the lift operator at risk of injury. Correction: Ricon Corporation repair facilities will inspect lift platforms, link arms and bearings for cracks, damage or misalignment and if found to be damaged, link arms and/or platform will be replaced. Note: This recall supersedes recall 2014-360. Vehicles repaired under the previous recall will require re-inspection and potential repair.
- Engine#2015050
54 units affected
On certain school buses, the exhaust system hanger may fail, possibly causing damage to the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) housings. Should this occur, the housings could separate and become a road hazard, posing a risk to motorists and bystanders. Correction: Dealers will provide new bolted hanger assemblies and support cables.
- Brakes#2014564
72 units affected
On certain school buses equipped with hydraulic brakes, the parking brake pedal assembly may have been manufactured incorrectly and could separate, allowing the pedal to bend. If separation were to occur, the parking brake may not engage properly, which could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Owners will be advised to inspect the date code found on the hydraulic park brake pedal. Assemblies found within the defective date code range will be replaced.
- Fuel System#2014350
44 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with Cummins ISB and ISL engines, the fuel filter shell and nut plate could separate, causing a fuel leak and also causing the engine to stall. Stalling would result in a loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a crash resulting in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel filter.
- Steering#2014211
182 units affected
On certain school buses, the steering shaft lower clamp could contact the rubber close out boot. This would increase the steering effort force necessary to steer the vehicle, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will relocate the clamp. If the rubber boot is found to be torn, the boot will be replaced.
- Brakes#2013465
17 units affected
On certain vehicles, the parking brake pedal arm could fail, allowing the parking brake to release without warning. This could result in unintended vehicle movement and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a new parking brake pedal arm assembly.
- Seats And Restraints#2013413
83 units affected
On certain school buses, the driver's seat belt may not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 209 - Seat Belt Assemblies. Due to a defect in manufacturing, the seat belt buckle may not release as required by the standard. This could hinder egress from the vehicle in an emergency, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace affected seatbelt buckles.
