IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE
MOT Recall Number: 2019-495 School Bus
DATE: | October 25, 2019 |
TO: | CANADIAN OWNERS |
Subject: | RECALL R19AH-C – Joint Strength Noncompliance – Insufficient Roof Rivet Quantity |
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Act. This is to inform you that your vehicle may contain a defect that could affect the safety of a person.
This important safety recall notice applies to your bus(es) identified by both Blue Bird Body Number and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the enclosed yellow cover sheet. If you no longer own the subject bus(es), please complete the appropriate section of the yellow cover sheet and return to Blue Bird in the enclosed pink postage prepaid envelope.
Blue Bird Body Company is recalling certain model year 2021 Vision School Buses manufactured from July 13, 2019 through August 26, 2019 and a 2021 TX4 School Bus manufactured on July 29, 2019. It has been determined that certain Blue Bird buses fail to conform to the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Number 221, School Bus Body Joint Strength. These subject buses may not comply with the 60% joint strength requirement on certain 8-inch segments of the exterior roof joints. Blue Bird evaluated the risk to motor vehicle safety related to this noncompliance and determined that there is a potential for the roof sheets to separate in the event of a severe impact when less than 6 rivets are installed in an 8-inch roof joint segment, which would increase the risk of injury. There is no audible or visual warning which would precede this potential failure.
Corrective Action:
To correct this noncompliance, the roof sheet joints on these subject buses must be inspected and, if found not in compliance, modified according to the Blue Bird repair instructions. Roof panel joints are assembled with two rows of rivets. Each joint must have a minimum of 6 rivets in each 8-inch segment. Utilizing an 8-inch template moving along the roof panel joint, the repair personnel will count the rivets that appear in the cutout section of the template. In the event that an 8-inch roof section has less than 6 rivets, the repair personnel will be required to add a sufficient number of rivets evenly spaced such that there are 6 rivets installed in that 8-inch segment. The 8-inch template is included with this notification letter. Parts for this campaign are currently available.
Labor Reimbursement:
Blue Bird will reimburse the labor cost of inspection and potential repairs relating to this recall at no cost to you the vehicle owner. The standard repair time (SRT) to accomplish these repairs in accordance with the R19AH-C installation procedure is 0.8 hours (48 minutes) for the inspection and 2 minutes per rivet that must be installed.

AVIS IMPORTANT DE RAPPEL DE SÉCURITÉ
Numéro de rappel MOT : autobus scolaire 2019-495
DATE: | 25 octobre 2019 |
À : | PROPRIÉTAIRES CANADIENS |
OBJET : | RAPPEL R19AH-C – Non-conformité à la résistance des joints – Quantité insuffisante de rivets de toit |
Le présent avis vous est envoyé conformément aux exigences de la Loi sur la sécurité automobile. La présente a pour but de vous informer que votre véhicule est susceptible d’avoir un défaut qui pourrait porter atteinte à la sécurité humaine.
Cet avis important de rappel de sécurité s’applique à vos autobus identifiés à la fois par le numéro de carrosserie Blue Bird et le numéro d’identification du véhicule (NIV) sur la feuille de couverture jaune ci-jointe. Si vous ne possédez plus le ou les autobus en question, veuillez remplir la section appropriée de la page de couverture jaune et la renvoyer à Blue Bird dans l’enveloppe-réponse affranchie rose ci-jointe.
Blue Bird Body Company rappelle certains autobus scolaires Vision de l’année de modèle 2021 fabriqués du 13 juillet 2019 au 26 août 2019 ainsi qu’un autobus scolaire 2021 TX4 fabriqué le 29 juillet 2019. Il a été déterminé que certains autobus Blue Bird ne se conforment pas à la norme de sécurité des véhicules automobiles du Canada numéro 221, Résistance des joints de carrosserie des autobus scolaires. Les autobus concernés pourraient ne pas satisfaire à l’exigence de résistance des joints de 60% sur certains segments de 8 pouces des joints de toit extérieurs. Blue Bird a évalué les risques pour la sécurité des véhicules automobiles liés à cette non-conformité et a déterminé qu’il était possible que les tôles de toiture se séparent en cas de choc important lorsque moins de 6 rivets sont installés sur un segment de joint de toit de 8 pouces, augmentant ainsi le risque de blessures. Aucun avertissement sonore ou visuel ne précéderait cette défaillance potentielle.
Mesure corrective
Pour corriger cette non-conformité, les joints des tôles de toit des autobus en question doivent être inspectés et, s’ils ne sont pas conformes, modifiés conformément aux instructions de réparation de Blue Bird. Les joints de panneau de toit sont assemblés avec deux rangées de rivets. Chaque joint doit comporter un minimum de 6 rivets dans chaque segment de 8 pouces. En déplaçant un modèle de 8 pouces le long du joint de panneau de toit, le personnel effectuant la réparation comptera les rivets qui apparaissent dans la section couverte par le modèle. Si une section de toit de 8 pouces comporte moins de 6 rivets, le personnel de réparation devra ajouter un nombre suffisant de rivets régulièrement espacés de sorte que 6 rivets soient installés dans ce segment de 8 pouces. Le modèle de 8 pouces est inclus avec cette lettre de notification. Les pièces relatives à cette campagne sont actuellement disponibles.
Remboursement de la main-d’œuvre
Blue Bird remboursera les coûts de main-d’œuvre de l’inspection et les réparations potentielles liées à ce rappel, sans frais pour vous le propriétaire du véhicule. Le délai normal de réparation (SRT – standard repair time) pour effectuer ces réparations conformément à la procédure d’installation du R19AH-C est de 0,8 heure
(48 minutes) pour l’inspection et de 2 minutes par rivet à installer.

It has been determined that certain Blue Bird buses fail to conform to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Number 221, School Bus Body Joint Strength. These subject buses may not comply with the 60% joint strength requirement on certain 8-inch segments of the exterior roof joints. Blue Bird evaluated the risk to motor vehicle safety related to this noncompliance and determined that there is a potential for the roof sheets to separate in the event of a crash when less than 6 rivets are installed in an 8-inch roof joint segment. In the event of a crash, if the roof sheets separate, there is an increased risk of injury.
To correct this noncompliance, the roof sheet joints on these subject buses must be inspected and, if found not in compliance, modified according to the Blue Bird repair instructions. Roof panel joints are assembled with two rows of rivets. Each joint must have a minimum of 6 rivets in each 8-inch segment. Utilizing an 8-inch template moving along the roof panel joint, the repair personnel will count the rivets that appear in the cutout section of the template. In the event that an 8-inch roof section has less than 6 rivets, the repair personnel will be required to add a sufficient number of rivets evenly spaced such that there are 6 rivets installed in that 8-inch segment. The 8-inch template is included with this notification letter. Parts for this campaign are currently available.
Blue Bird will reimburse the labor cost of inspection and potential repairs relating to this recall at no cost to you the Dealer or to the vehicle owner. The standard repair time (SRT) to accomplish these repairs in accordance with the R19AH installation procedure is 0.8 hours (48 minutes) for the inspection and 2 minutes per rivet that must be installed.
Parts to complete Recall R19AH can be obtained from Blue Bird Recall Administration via e-mail at campaignparts@blue-bird.com or by returning the yellow cover sheet to Blue Bird in the pink self-addressed, postage prepaid envelope to receive parts at no charge.
