2016 IC Bus Cesb recalls
Buses May Lack Floor Reinforcement, Raising Crash Injury Risk

Brake Fluid Leak Can Cause Electrical Fire
Brake fluid can leak from the brake pressure switch assembly into its electrical components.
Dragging Rear Brake Can Overheat and Cause Fire
Certain school buses built from 2016 through 2019 may have a driver-side rear brake that drags, meaning it does not fully release after braking.
Wheelchair Lift May Stop Above Floor, Risking Rider Injury
Certain 2015-2019 IC Bus CE school buses equipped with specific S-Series and K-Series Titanium wheelchair lifts may have a positioning input cam that can fail while the lift is in use.
Fuel pump relay can fail and stall bus, raising crash risk
A relay that controls the propane booster pump and scavenge pump can intermittently fail on these school buses.
Loose Steering Tie Rod Can Cause Loss of Steering
Certain 2016 school buses may have a castellated nut on the steer axle that was not properly torqued.
Unfused heater pump circuit can cause fire risk
The power circuit for the heater booster pump in certain school buses may be unfused, meaning it lacks the circuit protection that normally shuts off electricity during a fault.
Hot Coolant Can Leak Into Driver's Foot Area
A heater hose near the driver's heater water shutoff valve can wear out over time, fatigue, and split.
Wheelchair Lift Platform Can Fall Out When Doors Open
Certain school buses have wheelchair lifts whose folding link arms may have pivot holes that are too large.
School Bus Roof Exits May Be Hard for Rescuers to Spot
Certain 2016-2017 IC Bus CE and RE school buses may have been built without reflective outline tape around the emergency exit roof hatches.
Hood May Open While Braking, Blocking Driver's View
Hood straps that latch the engine hood closed can stretch over time and fail to return to their original length.
School Bus Stop Arm Decal May Peel, Reducing Visibility
Certain school buses with Transpec T6000, T6100, and T7000 series stop arms may have a reflective decal that can peel loose from the stop arm.
Brakes may drag and overheat, risking a wheel-end fire
Certain 2015-2016 IC school buses (CE and RE models built in 2014-early 2015) have Haldex air brake actuators that may have been made with an incomplete attachment of the internal rubber diaphragm.
Wiring may rub fuel line, risking fuel leak and fire
On certain 2015-2016 IC school buses built between October 2013 and March 2015, the powertrain wiring harness can contact the high pressure fuel line for one of the fuel injectors.
