The short version

Gillig LLC reported a problem with the front buckle assembly. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

In the affected seats, the seat belt buckle may be stuck in the locked position, preventing the seat belt tongue from being able to be inserted and locked.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the seat belt cannot be latched, the bus may be operated without the seat belt being used, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Gillig will notify owners and work with the supplier to replace the buckles, free of charge.
