Recall 2010132

The issue

On certain buses, the passenger seats may not comply with the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 222 - School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection. During a crash, the seat may not absorb enough energy and restrain the passengers as required by the Standard, which could result in personal injury or death to the occupants. Correction: Dealers will install a bracket to the aisle side of the seat frames.
