May 27, 1998

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: DUAL REAR WHEEL SCHOOL BUSES BUILT ON FORD E-350 AND E-450 'SUPER DUTY' CUTAWAY CHASSIS, EXTERIOR BODY WIDTH OF 80", GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING OF 11,500 OR 14,050 POUNDS.

THIS MODIFICATION CAN AFFECT COMPLIANCE TO FMVSS NO. 301, "FUEL SYSTEM INTEGRITY."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE CRASH, THE FRAME RAIL FLANGES COULD CONTACT AND RUPTURE THE FUEL TANK INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE FIRE AND PERSONAL INJURY.

Remedy: OWNERS WILL NEED TO INSPECT THEIR BUSES AND IF REPAIRS ARE NECESSARY, WILL BE PROVIDED WITH THE REPAIR PARTS REQUIRED. IF AN OWNER DESIRES, THEIR DEALER CAN PERFORM THE INSPECTION AND REPAIR.
