The short version

BLUE BIRD BODY COMPANY reported a problem with the equipment. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

THE AFFECTED BUSES WERE MANUFACTURED FROM DECEMBER 9, 2011, THROUGH MARCH 9, 2012. THE BRAKE VALVE PLUNGER MAY FRACTURE DURING BRAKE APPLICATION, RESULTING IN REDUCED BRAKE PEDAL ANGLE AND TRAVEL.

WHY IT MATTERS

WHAT TO DO

BLUE BIRD HAS REPORTED THAT ALL THE BUSES HAVE BEEN REPAIRED, free of charge.
