What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Corp. Micro Bird Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2018-2019 G5 electric school buses. Electrical wires in the vehicle charging port may have been improperly crimped.

The risk

An improperly crimped wire may overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Owners are advised not to drive these buses until the repair has been completed. Micro Bird will work coordinate with the manufacturer of the charging port, Ecotuned, to replace the charging port and the air conditioning refrigerant, free of charge. All affected vehicles were repaired in November 2022. Owners may contact Micro Bird's customer service at 1-819-477-2012. Micro Bird's number for this recall is 22-095-CUS.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
