Recall 15V691000 · manufacturer campaign R15YH-SB
Visibility/wiper — Blue Bird · reported 23 Oct 2015 · 63 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
Blue Bird Body Company (Blue Bird) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Vision school buses manufactured September 3, 2015, to September 18, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the windshield wiper motor harness connector may have been installed incorrectly, causing the wiper system to stop without warning.
The risk
An inoperative windshield wiper may reduce the driver's visibility during inclement weather, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Blue Bird will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and correct the wiper motor connection, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2015. Owners may contact Blue Bird customer service at 1-478-822-2242. Blue Bird's number for this recall is R15YH-SB.
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.
