COLLINS BUS CORPORATION

Recall Description: On certain school buses equipped with floor mounted wheelchair anchorage pockets that are used to accommodate and secure wheelchairs, during manufacturing, the reinforcement plate for the pocket may have been placed in the wrong position. This would not allow the screws to be attached through it. In the event of a crash, the anchorage may not retain the wheelchair. Serious injury to the wheelchair occupant or other vehicle occupants may be the result.

Remedy: Dealers will repair the buses by inserting a reinforcement extension plate and redrilling holes into this plate for the wheelchair anchorage screws to pass through.
