Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. is recalling 64 of its 2024-2026 G5 and 2025 T-Series transit buses because the wheelchair restraint retractors may fail to lock. This issue affects buses specifically equipped with QRT-Deluxe and QRT-Max wheelchair restraints, which may fail to secure passengers properly. Although no injuries have been reported, Micro Bird is offering free inspections and repairs through authorized dealers to ensure wheelchairs remain stable during transit.
