What the record says
- Product
- MICRO BIRD G5 TRANSIT BUS (2020) - Recall 21V991000
- Reason
- Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2013-2021 G5 transit buses. The fold-away seat, adjacent to a side emergency exit, may obstruct access to the emergency exit release handle and instruction label. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release." Occupants may have to unfold the seat to access the exit handle and instructions, delaying an emergency evacuation and increasing the risk of injury.
