Micro Bird USA LLC is recalling 42 of its 2026 G5 transit buses equipped with QRT-Deluxe and QRT-Max wheelchair restraint systems. The retractors in these systems may not lock as intended, which prevents wheelchairs from being properly secured to the vehicle. Dealers will inspect and replace the affected retractors at no cost to owners.
If a wheelchair is not properly locked, it can move unexpectedly during transit or in the event of a crash. This significantly increases the risk of injury to the person in the wheelchair and other passengers on the bus.
