Recall 16V-030: 2016–2017 IC Bus Cesb, 2016 IC Bus Resb
Navistar, Inc. recall for other, reported to NHTSA on Jan 22, 2016, covering about 529 vehicles.
The problem
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 IC CE school buses manufactured May 4, 2015, to December 15, 2015, and 2016 IC RE school buses manufactured July 17, 2015, to December 15, 2015, and equipped with certain Transpec T6000, T6100, and T7000 series school bus stop arms. The affected stop arms have a reflective decal that may peel loose from the stop arm. As such, these stop arms fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 131, "School Bus Pedestrian Safety Devices."
The risk
Without a reflective decal, the stop arms would have reduced visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the stop arm blade assembly, free of charge. The recall began on March 17, 2016. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-1590, or Specialty customer service at 1-800-951-7867. Navistar's number for this recall is 16501.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
