Transport Canada Recall - 2025180 - MICRO BIRD
Brand(s)
Summary
Affected products
2022 | MICRO BIRD | G5 SCHOOL BUS, 2023 | MICRO BIRD | G5 SCHOOL BUS, 2024 | MICRO BIRD | G5 SCHOOL BUS
Issue
On certain school buses, the U-bolts that attach the rear axle to the suspension could break. As a result, the axle could slide on the leaf spring and/or detach. This could cause poor handling and lead to a loss of control. Note: This recall only affects certain school buses built on GM chassis and equipped with supplemental leaf springs.
Safety risk
A loss of control could create the risk of a crash. An axle that detaches could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective actions
Micro Bird will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your school bus to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the leaf spring U-bolts and screws.
