Blue Bird Body Company is recalling approximately 310 of its 2026-2027 Vision and All American school buses. These vehicles are equipped with QRT-Deluxe and QRT-Max wheelchair restraints featuring retractors that may fail to lock. Blue Bird is working with the manufacturer, Q'Straint, to provide free inspections and replacements of the faulty retractors to ensure wheelchairs can be properly secured.
If the retractor does not lock as intended, a wheelchair can move freely while the bus is in motion. This unexpected movement during transit significantly increases the risk of injury to the wheelchair occupant and other passengers.
