Temsa external release handle for the roof emergency exit may have a rusted wire, which could break when force is applied to open the exit.
The short version
Temsa reported a problem with the escape/egress/exit latching/release system. Here is what owners need to know.
The external release handle for the roof emergency exit may have a rusted wire, which could break when force is applied to open the exit. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."
A broken handle wire on the emergency exit can delay passengers from exiting the vehicle during an emergency, increasing their risk of injury.
Temsa service centers will replace the external handle wire, free of charge.
