  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.

  Issue: On certain buses, the service door may not be adjusted correctly. As a result, the door panels may get stuck when the emergency release handle is used, or may not open when force is applied to the door. Additionally, the exterior emergency release handle may not allow the service door to be opened from outside of the bus. Safety Risk: A door that cannot be opened could delay exiting the bus in an emergency. This could also delay emergency response. Both of these issues could increase the risk of injury.
