What the record says
- Product
- THOMAS BUILT BUSES SAF-T-LINER C2 JOULEY (2025) - Recall 24V478000
- Reason
- Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2023-2025 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner C2 and 2024-2025 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner C2 Jouley school buses. The audible emergency warning alarm sounds may not activate when the emergency hatch or window is open. 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." An inaudible alarm that fails to warn the driver of an open emergency exit can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
