Safety recall notices and repair campaigns registered for the 2019 Ic Bus Re School Bus in Canada.
On one school bus, the reinforcements under the floor may not have been installed. As a result, the seats and/or seat belts could detach in a crash.
A seat and/or seat belt that detaches could increase the risk of injury in a crash.
International Motors will notify the owner by mail and advise them to take their school bus to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, install reinforcements under the floor.
On certain school buses, the fuel rail assembly could develop a leak. Note: This recall only affects buses equipped with a Cummins L9 or ISX12 diesel engine.
A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire.
Cummins will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your bus to a Cummins authorized service center to inspect the fuel rail. If damage is found, the fuel rail and fuel lines will be replaced. If no damage is found, the fuel rail will be reassembled with new crush washers.
On certain buses, the outer handle for the roof hatch (emergency exit) could break. If this happens, it would be difficult to open the roof hatch from outside the bus.
An emergency exit that is difficult to open could increase the risk of injury in an emergency.
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to an authorized service facility to replace the roof hatch outer handle.
On certain vehicles, the spring-actuated parking brake may have been improperly assembled. This could result in an internal air leak or a complete separation of the parking brake from the service brake chamber, either of which would cause a loss of braking on the affected wheel assembly. This could cause a sudden, unexpected increase in stopping distance, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace affected brake chamber assemblies.
A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
Certain school buses may fail to conform to the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 217 – Bus Window Retention, Release and Emergency Exits. The release handle for the emergency windows may be difficult to pull, which in the event of a crash or vehicle fire, could hamper passengers' efforts to quickly exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will apply dry lubricant to the latch assembly and cycle the handle to work the lubricant in.
A failure of this component (structure) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
