## What the record says

- **Product**: STARCRAFT BUS TRANSIT BUS (2014) - Recall 21V787000
- **Reason**: Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2012-2016 Starcraft transit buses. The rear emergency exit window labels are not in the correct location and only provide instructions for one release mechanism, instead of two release mechanisms. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release." In an emergency, the incorrect window label instructions may prevent or delay the use of the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
- **Recalling firm**: Forest River, Inc.
- **Quantity**: 7593
