Daimler Trucks North America is recalling 162 school buses, including 2023-2025 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner C2 and 2024-2025 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner C2 Jouley models. The audible warning alarm may fail to sound when an emergency window or hatch is open, which violates federal safety standards for bus emergency exits. Owners of these vehicles should contact a dealer to receive a free software update to fix the alarm system.
If an emergency exit is left open or unlatched, the driver will not be alerted by an alarm, which increases the risk of a passenger falling out or being injured during a crash.
Dealers will update the emergency sound software free of charge.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
