Problem: Certain transit buses fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 217, "bus emergency exits and window retention and release." the striker plates at the bottom of the emergency pushout windows can wear a groove into the emergency release bolt. If this groove becomes deep enough, the emergency push window may fail to open as intended when released.

Risk: In the event of an emergency, failure of the pushout window could potentially trap passengers or delay their escape, increasing the risk of injury.

Fix: Dealers will ship repair parts and installation instructions to the bus owners. The recall began on february 21, 2005. Owners may contact blue bird at 478-825-2021.
