2005–2006 IC CE & 2007 IC Bus BE + 1 more recall: body & structure

⚠️ What's wrong

Certain 2005-2007 CE and my 2007 BE school and transit buses manufactured between february 10, 2004, and december 15, 2005. Passenger coat strings or carry on items CAN get caught between the door control bracket and the door control arm as the passenger exits the bus.
