Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Lippert is recalling approximately 8,630 bus windows because the required Department of Transportation (DOT) markings on the glass may be unreadable. These windows fail to meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 205, which regulates glazing materials. Dealers will inspect the windows and repair the safety markings as necessary at no cost to owners.

Risk

If a window is missing a legible DOT code, it could be replaced with an incorrect type of glass during future maintenance. Using non-compliant glass increases the risk of serious injury to passengers in the event of a crash or impact.
