Metro Worldwide in certain configurations, if the bus is fully loaded, the vehicle may exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (gvwr) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (gawr) capacity.
The short version
Metro Worldwide, LLC reported a problem with the other labels. Here is what owners need to know.
In certain configurations, if the bus is fully loaded, the vehicle may exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) capacity. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
Being overloaded can cause a loss of vehicle control, premature tire wear, or failure of suspension and braking systems, increasing the risk of a crash.
Metro Worldwide will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles, removing a seat as necessary to get the vehicles within the GVWR and GAWR requirements, free of charge.
