The problem
Navistar is recalling certain model year 2011 and 2012 ic ce and re school buses manufactured from october 8, 2009, through april 14, 2011. These buses were built without or incorrectly installed floor channel reinforcements. Accordingly, the buses fail to conform with the seat back rear force and displacement requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 222, "school bus passenger seating and crash protection."
The risk
Noncompliance to the standard increases the passenger's risk of rearward ejection from the seat which may cause personal injury or death in the event of a crash.
The fix
Navistar will notify owners and dealers will repair the buses free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on or before september 16, 2011. Owners may contact navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
