Blue Bird Vision School Bus, Vision Transit Bus: Brakes
Affects Blue Bird Vision School Bus, Vision Transit Bus · 2004–2009 — about 2K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain buses, the brake hoses from the master cylinder to the chassis frame may have been improperly routed or retained. This could allow the hoses to chafe against body and/or chassis components which could cause a leak in the hydraulic brake system. Brake fluid leakage could ultimately result in a reduction of braking capability, which could increase the vehicle's stopping distance and cause a crash with personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the brake hoses. In addition, the brake hoses will be repositioned, loom added at the appropriate location, and properly retained.
