Recall 2012286

The issue

On certain school buses and multi-function school activity buses, the body mount bolts may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. Bolts not adequately secured could compromise the integrity of the body to chassis mounting. In the event of a crash, this could increase the risk of personal injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will tighten the body mount bolts to the prescribed torque.
