Collins Collins School Bus: Structure

The hazard

Issue: On certain school buses, the latch for the rear emergency exit may not work properly. As a result, the emergency exit could stay locked. This could prevent occupants from using the emergency exit and/or delay occupants from escaping the bus in an emergency. Safety Risk: An emergency exit that can't be opened could slow your exit from the bus in an emergency. This could increase the risk of injury. Corrective Actions: To reduce the safety risk, Forest River advises you not to lock the rear emergency exit until the recall repairs have been completed. Forest River will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your school bus to a dealership to replace the rear emergency exit latch.
