2002–2006 MCI E4500C & 2001–2005 MCI J4500 + 2 more recall: windows, wipers & mirrors
⚠️ What's wrong
MCI is recalling certain model year 2001-2004 E4500, model year 2002-2006 E4500C, model year 2001-2005 J4500, and model year 2006 J4500C motor coaches equipped with se-gi passenger windows. The adhesive bond between the window glass and the aluminum window frame on the affected coaches may degrade.
💥 The risk
If the window glass becomes partially or completely debonded from its frame, the window glass may detach and fall from the coach and cause personal injury or property damage.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect, test, and repair, as necessary, the se-gi window assemblies free of charge. The safety recall began on august 23, 2010. Owners may contact MCI customer service at 1-800-241-2947.
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.)
