Novabus affected seats have J-Brackets that may be missing welds which could allow the seat belt anchorage assembly to separate from the J-Bracket.
The short version
Nova Bus reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected seats have J-Brackets that may be missing welds which could allow the seat belt anchorage assembly to separate from the J-Bracket.
If the seat belt anchorage assembly separates from the J-Bracket, the bus driver may not be properly restrained in the event of a crash increasing their risk of injury.
Nova will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seats for missing welds, free of charge.
