Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Blue Bird Body Company is recalling 16 of its All American transit buses from model years 2022 to 2024. A 12-volt cable in these vehicles may be loose and could disconnect, which would cause a sudden loss of electrical systems. Blue Bird dealers will inspect the cable, add a torque stripe for security, and properly tighten it free of charge.

Risk

If the cable disconnects while driving, the bus could lose its steering assist, brake assist, engine power, or instrument panel displays. This sudden loss of control and visibility significantly increases the risk of a crash.
