Issue

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.
