12V090000 · Seat Belts:Front:Anchorage
Reported: 2012-03-06 (March 6, 2012)
TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. (TCI) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 AND 2012 TRANS TECH MODEL SST SCHOOL BUSES MANUFACTURED OF FORD E350 AND E450 ECONOLINE CHASSIS. THE FIBERGLASS INSTALLED FAILED TO MEET DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS, CAUSING THE INSUFFICIENT TORQUE VALVES AT THE UPPER TORSO MOUNTING POINT. AS SUCH, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 210, "SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY ANCHORAGES."
Consequence: IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE SHOULDER RESTRAINT COULD DETACH FROM THE B-PILLAR ANCHORAGE, INCREASING THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY TO THE OCCUPANT.
Remedy: TCI WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS AND REPAIR KITS OR THE BUS MAY BE TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED REPAIR FACILITY, AT NO COST TO THE OWNER. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MARCH 15, 2012. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TCI AT 1-845-988-0419.
NHTSA campaign record ↗17V399000 · Equipment:Appliance:Air Conditioner
Reported: 2017-06-26 (June 26, 2017)
Transportation Collaborative, Inc. (Transportation Collaborative) is recalling certain 2012-2017 Transtech Bus ST Aero, SST, CST, Horizon, and RoadStar transit buses equipped with Bus-Air air conditioning systems. These air conditioning systems use a 30AMP in-line fuse that may short against the screw that secures the fuse holder.
Consequence: If the fuse short circuits, the holder may overheat and melt, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Transportation Collaborative will notify owners, and dealers will install an in-line mini fuse holder, free of charge. The recall began on August 21, 2017. Owners may contact Transportation Collaborative customer service at 1-845-988-0419.
NHTSA campaign record ↗18V719000 · Seats
Reported: 2018-10-12 (October 12, 2018)
Transportation Collaborative, Inc. (Transportation Collaborative) is recalling certain 2011-2018 Transtech Bus SST, SST Flat Floor and ST Aero school buses, equipped with CE White/HSM SB11-26" and SB11-30" series, standard, unbelted, school bus seats, or SB11-30" series school bus seats with lap belts only. The foam in the knee impact area of the lower seat back may not absorb enough impact in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection."
Consequence: If the seat foam does not absorb enough impact energy, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy: Transportation Collaborative will notify owners, and dealers will install a styrene strip for additional padding, free of charge. The recall began November 16, 2018. Owners may contact Transportation Collaborative customer service at 1-845-988-0419. Transportation Collaborative's number for this recall is 18E-056.
