Issue
Issue:
On certain school buses, the letters on the instruction labels for the emergency exits are too small. This could make it difficult to read the label. Canadian regulations require a minimum size for the letters.
Safety Risk:
Instructions for an emergency exit that are difficult to read could delay persons from exiting the bus in an emergency and increase the risk of injury.
Corrective Actions:
Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your school bus to a DTNA authorized service facility to increase the height of the letters on the instruction labels.
