Micro Bird G5 Commercial Bus: Seats and Restraints

Affects Micro Bird G5 Commercial Bus · 2006–2022 — about 773 vehicles.

The hazard

Issue: On certain buses, a fold-away seat was placed next to the emergency exit window. When the seat is folded, it may block the instruction label and release handle for the emergency exit. As a result, you may not be able to open the exit window without unfolding the seat. Safety Risk: An emergency exit that is difficult to open could slow your exit from the bus in an emergency. This could create an increased risk of injury. Corrective Action: Micro Bird will notify owners by mail and advise you to contact a dealer to have your vehicle(s) inspected and repaired.
