List of safety recalls by NHTSA May 10, 2022

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issues the following news about recalls:

1. Blue Bird Body Company is recalling certain 2022-2023 Vision school buses. The fuel supply line was incorrectly routed, allowing it to chafe against a bolt head, which can damage the line and create a fuel leak. A fuel leak increases the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 1,450 units are affected by the recall.
2. Blue Bird Body Company is recalling certain 2023 Vision school buses. The incorrect pins were installed on the air stop arm, which may cause it to fail. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 131, “School Bus Pedestrian Safety Devices.” An inoperative stop arm increases the risk of injury during the boarding and deboarding process of the bus. NHTSA says potentially 674 units are affected by the recall.
3. Corp. Micro Bird is recalling certain 2006-2021 MBII and G5 transit buses. An inactive electrical harness that is secured in an opening in the B-pillar may become damaged from sharp edges inside the opening. A damaged electrical harness may short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 14,229 units are affected by the recall.
4. Corp. Micro Bird is recalling certain 2018-2020 MBII school buses. The GenQ seats equipped with Type 2 seat belts may have been attached with insufficient hardware. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the FMVSS numbers 207, “Seating Systems”, and 210, “Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.” An insufficiently attached seat may detach during a crash, increasing the risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially 457 units are affected by the recall.
