Micro Bird recall: Electrical system
What is wrong
Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2023 CT-Series vehicles equipped with a anti-vandal lock on the rear emergency door. The ignition interlock may allow the vehicle to start when the rear emergency door is locked after the key has been inserted in the ignition. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."
What could happen
An emergency exit door that is locked can prevent or delay occupants from exiting the vehicle during an emergency, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Dealers will repair the ignition interlock connection, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 30, 2024. Owners may contact Micro Bird customer service at 1-819-477-2012. Micro Bird's number for this recall is 24-112-IUC.
