Summary:
Corp. Micro Bird Inc. "Micro Bird" is recalling certain model year 2015 MBII and G5 school buses manufactured between May 1, 2015, and December 18, 2015, equipped with Transpec stop arms, part numbers T6000-, T6100-, and T7000-. The STOP decal may peel off the plastic blade of the stop arm. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" No. 131, "School Bus Pedestrian Safety Devices." |
||
|
Consequence:
Absence of the reflective decal would reduce visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash. |

Micro Bird will notify owners and recall repair kits will be available free of charge. The recall began on January 20, 2016. Owners may contact Micro Bird customer service at 1-819-477-2012. |
