VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR

Issued by DAIMLER BUSES NORTH AMERICA, INC. · Reported Jun 11, 2009 · 286 vehicles affected

What's wrong

ORION IS RECALLING 286 MODEL YEAR 2007 THROUGH 2009 TRANSIT BUSES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN DECEMBER 2007 AND APRIL 2009. THE BOND OF THE GLASS TO THE ALUMINUM FRAME OF THE PASSENGER WINDOWS IS NOT ADEQUATE ENOUGH TO HOLD THE WINDOW ATTACHED TO THE FRAME.

Consequence

THE WINDOW COULD DISLODGE FROM THE BUS WHILE IN OPERATION, POSSIBLY BECOMING A ROAD HAZARD TO OTHER MOTORISTS WHICH COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy

ORION WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND THE MOVING WINDOW PORTION WILL BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR BEFORE JULY 15, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HEHR INTERNATIONAL AT 1-989-845-3067 OR ORION AT 1-800-716-7466.
