Summary
Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2018-2019 and 2021 G5 transit buses. The seats located over the fuel filler and equipped with seat belts may detach.

Chronology :
In April 2023, while verifying whether instructions for installation over the fuel filler of a seat equipped with seat belts were available, it was discovered that these seats may not comply with Motor Vehicle Safety Regulation number 210, “Seat Belt Anchorages.”
Further analysis of the situation was conducted, and it was discovered that vehicles having that configuration had been manufactured and sold.
Following conclusion that the seats installed over the fuel filler and equipped with seat belts were probably not compliant with the standard, on August 23, 2023, it was decided to recall the buses that were identified as having this configuration.
Micro Bird has not received any report of incident or claim regarding this noncompliance.
