Recall 2013271

The issue

Certain school buses fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 222 – School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection. The seatback material may not meet the leg protection zone impact criteria of the Standard, which could increase the risk of injury during a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will install polystyrene blocks in the lower outside corners of each seat (beneath the seat upholstery).
