Issue: On a small number of buses, the wheelchair tie-down retractors may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the retractor(s) may not lock automatically. If this happens, the wheelchair may not be secured correctly and could move in a crash. Safety Risk: A wheelchair that moves in a crash could increase the risk of injury. Corrective Actions: To reduce the safety risk, Micro Bird recommends you confirm the wheelchair is secured properly by attempting to move it before driving until the recall repairs have been completed. Micro Bird will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your bus to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the wheelchair retractor(s).
- Structure#2025473
571 units affected
Issue: On certain buses equipped with power-assisted doors, the rod-eye ring could delaminate. As a result, the rod attached to the door panels could separate from the opening gear and become loose. If this happens, the door panel(s) could open unexpectedly. Safety Risk: A door that opens unexpectedly could increase the risk of injury to passengers and others. Corrective Actions: Micro Bird will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your bus to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, repair the rod-eye ring.
- Structure#2024680
11 units affected
Issue: On certain buses, under certain conditions, the ignition interlock system may not work properly. As a result, you may be able to start the engine even if the rear emergency door is locked. Safety Risk: A locked emergency door could delay passengers from leaving the bus in an emergency. This could create a risk of injury. Corrective Action: Micro Bird will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your bus to a dealership to repair the ignition interlock system.
- Label#2021750
236 units affected
Issue: This recall affects certain buses altered by Dynamic Specialty Vehicles to carry wheelchair passengers. After the buses were modified, the company didn't apply an altered vehicle label with an updated cargo-carrying capacity. As a result, a person might overload the bus with cargo. This could lead to poor handling or a tire failure. Safety Risk: Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Dynamic Specialty Vehicles will send each owner an altered vehicle label with an updated cargo-carrying capacity. If you would like help to install it, you should contact Dynamic Specialty Vehicles.
- Electrical#2019654
175 units affected
Issue: On certain buses, the 150-A breaker installed under the driver’s seat may be too large for the wiring connected to it. As a result, the wiring could overheat before the circuit breaker trips. Safety Risk: An electrical circuit that overheats could increase the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Micro Bird will notify owners by mail and provide them with a replacement circuit breaker that has a lower current rating, and the directions for installing it.
- Seats And Restraints#2018690
28 units affected
Certain buses built on a GM or Ford Chassis may have been equipped with defective GO-ES Foldaway seats. When the back seat cushion is rotated from the stowed position to the upright position, the seat back may not remain locked into place, which could increase the risk of injury to seat occupant in the event of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, repair and re-inspect the seat using the provided procedure.
- Seats And Restraints#2018405
294 units affected
On certain buses, the passenger shoulder belt anchorage plate(s) may not be attached correctly. In the event of a crash, the belt anchorage plate may become partially or totally detached, reducing the capacity of the shoulder belt to retain the passenger, resulting in an increased risk of injury or fatality. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, re-install the shoulder belt anchorage plate using the correct procedure.
- Structure#2016290
167 units affected
Certain buses may have been manufactured with defective T-sliding windows that could allow water to accumulate in the central horizontal bar and not drain out properly. If this condition is present during a cold period, the accumulated water could freeze, expand and permanently deform the horizontal center bar, applying a stress on the glass to a point where it could potentially shatter, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Lippert Components Canada will provide instructions and some of the equipment necessary to the owners of the affected buses so that they can repair the faulty windows. The equipment that is not supplied is subject to a refund offer.
- Accessories#2015568
10 units affected
On certain 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: Owners will be provided with inspection and repair instructions, as well as necessary repair parts.
