Thomas Built lettering on the instruction label for the rear emergency exit window may be too small.
The short version
Daimler Trucks North America LLC reported a problem with the emergency escape/egress/exit. Here is what owners need to know.
The lettering on the instruction label for the rear emergency exit window may be too small. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."
Small lettering may be difficult for occupants to read, delaying the reaction time to open the exit, increasing the risk of injury.
DTNA will notify owners and mail a new label to attach to the exit window by first class mail, free of charge.
