Brand(s)
Summary
Affected products
2022 | BLUE BIRD | VISION SCHOOL BUS
Issue
On certain school buses equipped with a 7.3 L gas engine, the brake lines may be missing a securing clamp near the engine. As a result, a brake line could be damaged by contact with the exhaust pipe. This could lead to a brake fluid leak and result in reduced brake performance. Note: A brake fluid leak may cause the low brake pressure warning light to turn on.
Safety risk
Reduced brake performance can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective actions
Blue Bird will notify owners by mail and provide instructions for inspecting the brakes lines near the engine. Any missing hardware must be installed according to the recall instructions.
