Defect Summary:
CERTAIN TRANSIT BUSES FAIL TO COMPLY TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 217, 'BUS EMERGENCY EXITS AND WINDOW RETENTION AND RELEASE.' THE WRONG LABEL WAS PLACED AT THE PASSENGER ENTRANCE/EXIT AND WAS NOT SPECIFICALLY INDICATING WHERE THE EMERGENCY DOOR RELEASE MECHANISM WAS LOCATED. Consequence Summary:
IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, A PASSENGER MAY NOT KNOW IMMEDIATELY WHERE THE EMERGENCY DOOR RELEASE WOULD BE LOCATED, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY. Corrective Summary:
DEALERS WILL FURNISH THE CORRECT LABEL AND WILL BE PLACED AT A NOTICEABLE LOCATION. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT STARTRANS AT 574-642-4730. Recall Notes:
CUSTOMERS CAN ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
