| Description |
Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2011-2023 Thomas Built EFX and HDX school buses. The exterior roof panel was manufactured with insufficient joint strength. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 221, "School Bus Body Joint Strength." |
| Consequences |
A school bus exterior roof panel with insufficient joint strength may separate during a crash, increasing the risk of injury. |
| Corrective action |
Dealers will add additional mechanical fasteners to secure the joints, free of charge. Interim notification letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed December 28, 2022. A second notice will be sent once the final remedy is available. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL957. |
| 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. |
