Micro Bird recall: Seat belts
What is wrong
Corp. Micro Bird Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Micro Bird G5, MB II, and T-Series school buses. During manufacturing, the seat belt anchorage plate may not have been correctly attached to the wall, limiting the capacity of the shoulder belt to restrain a passenger in the event of a crash.
What could happen
If the belt anchorage plate detaches from the wall and cannot properly restrain a passenger it can increase the risk of injury.
