2011–2012 IC Bus CE & 2011–2012 IC Bus RE recall: body & structure

⚠️ What's wrong

Navistar is recalling certain model year 2011 and 2012 ic CE and RE school buses manufactured from october 8, 2009, through april 14, 2011. These buses were built without or incorrectly installed floor channel reinforcements. Accordingly, the buses fail to conform with the seat back rear force and displacement requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 222, "school bus passenger seating and crash protection."

Noncompliance to the standard increases the passenger's risk of rearward ejection from the seat which may cause personal injury or death in the event of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Navistar will notify owners and dealers will repair the buses free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on or before september 16, 2011. Owners may contact navistar at 1-800-448-7825.

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.)
