The problem

Gillig LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2016 Low Floor vehicles manufactured March 3, 2016, to April 21, 2016. The driver's side window on the affected vehicles may block too much light, thereby decreasing the driver's visibility. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 205, "Glazing Materials."

The risk

Reduced driver's visibility can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Gillig will notify owners, and dealers will install compliant driver's windows, free of charge. The recall began on June 20, 2016. Owners may contact Gillig customer service at 1-800-735-1500.
