Issue

On certain school buses, the restraining barrier between the entrance door and the first seat may not meet the energy absorption requirements of Canadian regulations.

Safety risk

A barrier that doesn't properly absorb energy could increase the risk of injury to passengers in a crash.

Corrective actions

Blue Bird will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions and a repair kit to properly secure the restraining barrier to the floor.

Background

Visit Transport Canada’s Motor Vehicle Safety Recalls Database for the original recall.
