Affects Thomas Built Saf-T-Liner C2 School Bus · 2012 — about 220 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain school buses, improper Bulk-Head Module software may cause the side marker and turn signal lamps to stop functioning after a few minutes of vehicle operation. Side marker failure could render the vehicle less visible to other motorists during hours of darkness, while a turn signal lamp malfunction may prevent the driver’s intentions from being conveyed clearly to other road users. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Authorized service facilities will update the Bulk-Head Module software.
