  4. 07V224000Received . 727 units.

    Equipment Adaptive/Mobility

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Certain my 2007 and 2008 international school and commercial buses manufactured between january 20 and september 28, 2006, equipped with ricon wheelchair lifts . The lift inner barrier interlock switch system may not detect the presence of a passenger on the inner barrier and allow the platform to move down more than one inch below floor level while occupied which does not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 403, platform lift systems for motor vehicles.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    The defect involves the interlock switch system in the lift not detecting the presence of a passenger (either wheelchair or standee) on the ricon wheelchair platform lift. In the event this condition occurs during passenger operations it may be possible for the wheelchair to tip backwards onto the platform when the platform was lowered. This could result in injury to the wheelchair's occupant. Also, anyone standing on the platform could lose his or her balance and fall, resulting in injury.

  5. 06V479000Received . 1,948 units.

    Seats

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Certain ic school and commercial buses manufactured between october 11, 2005, and october 31, 2006. These buses have the following safety issues: if the driver's seat is in the highest and most rear position, the back of the seat may lean against a barrier behind the seat, or against the seat back. This will prevent the seat belt from retracting which fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, seat belt assemblies. When adjust the seat to a higher position, the driver may pull the seat past the last stop so that the seat sits on the adjusting pin, which allows the seat to teeter on top of the pin. If over-travel occurs, the upper seat pedestal tube could separate from the lower pedestal tube during vehicle operation. If the driver is sitting in the driver's seat and reaches to adjust the seat height, their weight will cause the seat to drop, which could result in their hand being pinched between the seat and the lever. The driver's seat is difficult to adjust to a higher position because of the additional weight of the all belts to seat (abts) design.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This may result in personal injury.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Ic will notify owners and repair the seats free of charge. The recall began on february 23, 2007. Owners may contact ic at 1-800-448-7825.

    Certain my 2006 and 2007 ic ce and 2007 be school buses manufactured between august 3, 2005, and may 1, 2006. The configuration of the mounting bracket for the 39 inch track mounted ce white child safety seat fails to conform to the strength requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 210, seat belt assembly anchorages.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    In the event of a vehicle crash, the mounting bracket may not provide sufficient strength to ensure that the seat occupant is properly restrained.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Ic corporation will notify owners and repair the noncompliant buses free of charge. The recall began on august 31, 2006. Owners may contact ic corporation at 1-800-843-5615 or international at 1-800-448-7825.
