Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

OUR BUS OPERATOR REPORTED THAT WHEN SHE WAS STOPPING FOR A TRAFFIC SIGNAL THE BRAKE PEDAL SUDDENLY WENT TO THE FLOOR, SHE PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON TO STOP THE BUS. THE BUS WAS TAKEN TO OUR MAINTENANCE SHOP, OUR MAINTENANCE SUPERVISOR TESTED THE BRAKES, HE ALSO REPORTED THAT WITH THE BUS IN REVERSE HE STEPPED ON THE BRAKE AND IT DID NOT APPLY THE BRAKES, HE HAD TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. WE TRIED TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AGAIN AND WERE NOT ABLE TO. WE CONTACTED OUR BLUE BIRD BUS DEALER AND SENT THE BUS TO THEM. *TR

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
