Thomas Built Minotour School Bus: Other

Affects Thomas Built Minotour School Bus · 2006–2007 — about 4 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain school buses, plastic zip ties were found around wheelchair lift interlock switches. The zip tie may prevent the switch from operating, defeating the interlock function. Defeating the wheelchair interlock switch allows the bus to be driven with the lift still deployed. Correction: Dealers will inspect and remove zip ties found on the switches.
