Transport Canada recalls

Heater And Defroster#2016569November 16, 2016
3,596 units affected
On certain school buses, the formed heater hose going to the driver’s heater could rupture allowing hot coolant to leak into the operators foot area. If hot coolant were to come in contact with the operator, it could result in a burn injury and, depending on the driver’s reaction, could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the formed heater hose.
Accessories#2015611December 22, 2015
147 units affected
On certain school buses equipped with a Ricon S-Series wheelchair lift, the platform could potentially crack due to bent knuckle link arms and/or defective bearing. Overtime, the platform could separate of the rear portion of the pivot plate making the lift inoperable and putting the lift operator at risk of injury. Correction: Owners will need to make an appointment with the local Ricon Dealer to have the lift inspected and repaired.
Accessories#2014488October 30, 2014
147 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: Dealers will inspect lift platforms for cracks and repair as necessary, and install a repair kit.
Seats And Restraints#2013451December 19, 2013
105 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.
Seats And Restraints#2013293August 30, 2013
7 units affected
Certain school buses fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 222 – School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection. A weld at the base of the barrier (between the right front seat and the entry door) may have been mislocated. As a result, the barrier may not perform as designed during a vehicle crash, which could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace the barrier frame.
Seats And Restraints#2013271August 6, 2013
2,548 units affected
Certain school buses fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 222 – School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection. The seatback material may not meet the leg protection zone impact criteria of the Standard, which could increase the risk of injury during a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will install polystyrene blocks in the lower outside corners of each seat (beneath the seat upholstery).
Label#2013123April 17, 2013
285 units affected
Certain school buses fail to conform to the requirements of CMVSS 217 – Bus Window Retention, Release and Emergency Exits. Specifically, push-out windows and other emergency exits may only be identified using unilingual text, instead of using text in both official languages. In the event of an emergency, this could hamper passenger efforts to quickly exit the vehicle, which could increase the risk of personal injuries. Correction: Dealers will install updated labels.
