Issue

On certain school buses equipped with a driver's seat containing a "Stabilus Bloc-O-Lift" support shock, the mounting tab on the shock may break unexpectedly, causing the seat to drop to its lowest position without warning, which could result in a momentary loss of control if the vehicle is in operation, possibly resulting in a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the support shock.
