    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

When a vehicle passenger occupies the Flip Seat, pushing the seat bottom downward to the horizontal position to sit in the seat, the occupant of the rearward seat could suffer a pinch point injury to their toes and/or foot.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    C. E. White will work closely with the school bus manufacturers to identify and notify the school bus owners of the safety recall. The school bus manufacturers will install a safety guard to cover the gap in the lower frame of the flip seat. A notification schedule for this campaign has not yet been established.
