The problem
Mci is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 d4005 and d4505 motor coaches equipped with a national seating company driver's seat containing a stabilus bloc-o-lift shock. The driver's seat shock damper may break allowing the driver's seat to unexpectedly drop to the floor without warning.
The risk
In the event this should occur while the bus is in operation, the driver may lose control of the vehicle, possibly resulting in a crash.
The fix
Mci will notify owners and replace the seat shock as necessary free of charge. The safety recall began on september 15, 2010. Owners may contact mci customer service at 1-800-241-2947.
