Blue Bird Micro Bird School Bus: Structure
Affects Blue Bird Micro Bird School Bus · 2006 — about 1 vehicles.
The hazard
Certain school buses fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 301 - Fuel System Integrity. The affected buses were produced with an 8-inch rear bumper rather than a 10-inch bumper. In the event of a crash, the bumper may not provide adequate protection to fuel system components. This could result in a post-crash fuel leak which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear bumper.
