Defect. Collins Bus Corporation (Collins) is recalling certain 2016 DH416 school buses manufactured February 18, 2016, to February 19, 2016 built on Ford chassis, and 2016 DE516 school buses manufactured January 18, 2016, to February 19, 2016 built on Chevrolet chassis. These vehicles are equipped with seats that may separate from the base frame due to bolt failure. As such, these seats fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety System (FMVSS) number 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection."

Risk. In the event of a crash, the seat can separate from the base frame, increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant.

Remedy. Collins will notify owners, and the manufacturer of the seats will replace the seats free of charge. The recall began on June 17, 2016. Owners may contact Collins customer service at 1-800-533-1850. Collins' number for this recall is 16E037.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
