⚠️ What's wrong
Certain 2006 ic Resb (PB305) and Recb (PC305) school and commercial buses manufactured from july 20 to october 17, 2005. The primary and secondary air supply tubes from the foot valve to the primary and secondary air tanks were reversed at the tank which fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 121, air brake systems.

Ic will notify the owners and inspect and , if necessary, repair the buses free of charge. The recall began on november 23, 2005. Owners may contact international at 800-448-7825.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
