Gillig emergency exit window latch may fail, allowing the window to open during a crash.
The short version
Gillig, LLC reported a problem with the escape/egress/exit latching/release system. Here is what owners need to know.
The emergency exit window latch may fail, allowing the window to open during a crash. As such, these emergency exit windows fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."
A window that opens during a crash may not properly retain passengers, increasing the risk of injury.
Gillig will work with Arrow to replace the emergency release bar assembly, free of charge.
