The short version

CORP. MICRO BIRD, INC. reported a problem with the front anchorage. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

DURING PRODUCTION, THE 2 SETS OF LOWER ANCHORAGES WHICH ARE USED TO RESTRAIN A PORTABLE CHILD SEAT, WERE NOT INSTALLED. ACCORDINGLY, THE BUSES FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO.

WHY IT MATTERS

IF A PORTABLE CHILD RESTRAINT IS INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE, IT WILL ONLY BE SECURED BY THE SEAT BELT INSTEAD OF THE SEAT BELT AND THE LOWER ANCHORAGES. IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, A CHILD NOT SUFFICIENTLY RESTRAINED COULD BE INJURED.

WHAT TO DO

MICRO BIRD WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSTALL THE MISSING LOWER ANCHORAGES FREE OF CHARGE.
