Brakes

Issue Description

Certain school buses may not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 105 - Hydraulic and Electric Brake Systems. The parking brake may not engage, as the parking brake cable may dislodged from the foot pedal assembly. This could result in unintended vehicle movement if the vehicle's transmission is not in the PARK gear position, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a cable retention clip and a cable-end return spring to prevent the parking brake cable from disengaging from pedal and ensure it is properly adjusted.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

Brakes

Issue Description

Certain school  buses may fail to conform to the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 121 - Air Brake Systems. When turning the key to the ON position, the two gauges on the instrument cluster may not display the correct air pressure for the primary and secondary air tanks. When this occurs, the air gauges would remain zeroed and would not display the actual system air pressure correctly, contrary to the requirements of the standard. Correction: Dealers will perform a software update to rectify the issue.
