Issue

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.
