Blue Bird Bus Company "Blue Bird" is recalling certain 2022-2024 Vision electric school buses equipped with hydraulic brakes. The system software may fail to detect and alert the driver to a loss of the secondary brake assist.
Driving the bus without a functioning secondary brake assist increases the risk of a crash.
Dealers will update the software and repair the wiring harness, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 12, 2025. Owners may contact Blue Bird customer service at 1-478-822-2242.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1- 888-275-9171', or go to www.safercar.gov.
