2007–2008 Blue Bird Vision recall: windows, wipers & mirrors
⚠️ What's wrong
Certain 2007 and 2008 my blue bird Vision school buses manufactured between october 16, 2006, and january 18, 2007. Continuous resetting of the circuit breaker when the wiper/washer is operating in the wash/wipe mode may cause failure in the wiring circuit resulting in power being applied to the ground which could cause the circuit breaker to overheat and fail resulting in a stalled wiper.
💥 The risk
Failure of the wiper in inclement weather conditions may cause a vehicle crash, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
🔧 The fix
Blue bird will notify owners and repair the buses free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on february 28, 2007. Owners CAN contact blue bird at 478-822-2242.
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.)
