2003 Girardin Mbiv recalls
Recall 03V-365: Seat Belts
Problem: My 2003 mbii & mbiv school buses built on ford e-350 & e-450, GM 3500 chassis, and manufactured between august 25 and september 17, 2003. These buses are equipped with beam's industries seat belts. The metal frame of the seat belt buckle may fracture due to possible embrittlement of the steel, resulting in a potential release of the engaged tongue during use. These seat belt assemblies do not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seat belt assemblies."
Risk: In the event of a vehicle crash, the buckle may unlatch, and possible injury or death could occur to the seat occupant.
Fix: Beam's industries will notify the customers of girardin directly and will provide them with the remedy and installation instructions free of charge. Owners should contact beam's at 1-888-343-9266 or girardin at 1-819-477-8222.
