Blue Bird Body Company "Blue Bird" is recalling certain 2022 Vision school buses equipped with Ford 7.3L engines. The retaining clamp used to secure the hydraulic brake line near the engine may not have been installed, which could cause the brake line to rub which could cause a brake fluid leak and result in a loss of brake function.
Loss of braking ability increases the risk of a crash.
Dealers will inspect the hydraulic brakes lines, and install any missing hardware, free of charge. Owners letters were mailed on November 30, 2021. Owners may contact Blue Bird's customer service at 1-478-822-2242. Blue Bird's number for this recall is R21BN-SB.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
