What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2018-2019 and 2021 G5 transit buses. The seats located over the fuel filler and equipped with seat belts may detach. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."

The risk

Seats that detach may not adequately restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

The remedy

Dealers will repair the seats, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 5, 2023. Owners may contact Micro Bird customer service at 1-819-477-2012. Micro Bird's number for this recall is 23-103-PUC.

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.
