The short version
Motor Coach Industries reported a problem with the seat belts. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected seats were manufactured in a way that the tether bar may push into the retractor panel door and potentially interfere with the seat belt locking mechanism.
If the seat belt locking mechanism does not function as intended, the bus driver may not be properly restrained, increasing the risk of personal injury in the event of a crash.
MCI will notify owners , and dealers will inspect and retrofit the seats free of charge.
