The problem
Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2018-2019 and 2021 G5 transit buses. The seats located over the fuel filler and equipped with seat belts may detach. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
The risk
Seats that detach may not adequately restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix
Dealers will repair the seats, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 5, 2023. Owners may contact Micro Bird customer service at 1-819-477-2012. Micro Bird's number for this recall is 23-103-PUC.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
