Ic Bus recall: Seat belts
What is wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2011 IC CE transit buses equipped with certain non-retractable passenger two-point lap belts. After long term buckling and unbuckling of the seat belt, the plastic fingers on the male portion of the buckle may crack and fall off, requiring excessive force to buckle the seat belt.
What could happen
In the event of a crash, the seat belt may not buckle or properly restrain a passenger in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of an injury.
The fix
Navistar will notify owners and dealers will replace the seat belt assemblies, free of charge. Navistar issued interim notifications to owners on August 16, 2019. The recall began September 23, 2019. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825.
