Safety recall notices and repair campaigns registered for the 2010 Thomas Built Hdx School Bus in Canada.
On certain school buses, the stem which joins the outside emergency door handle to the emergency door opening mechanism may potentially corrode. Excessive material loss of the stem due to corrosion could result in the outside handle separating from the door mechanism while trying to open the door from the exterior of the bus. In the event of an emergency, this could delay evacuation of the vehicle and increase the risk of injury to occupants. Correction: Dealers will inspect the stems and either replace or protect them against further corrosion.
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).
On certain buses, a heater coolant flow valve actuator O-ring may allow coolant leakage into the heater core compartment and the actuator Printed Circuit (PC) board area, potentially causing overheat and melt. An overheated and/or melted actuator may result in a vehicle fire causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the dash heater actuator with a more robust version.
A failure of this component (heater and defroster) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
