What this recall means for you
The side and rear glass on this 2026 transit bus may have illegible DOT markings. These markings show the glass meets federal safety standards for glazing materials, so windows without readable markings do not comply with those requirements.
A missing or unreadable DOT mark means the glass could be replaced with an incorrect type during service, which increases the risk of injury. If you own or operate this vehicle, have an authorized Blue Bird dealer inspect and repair the glass etching. The repair is free of charge. Blue Bird mailed an owner notification letter on March 19, 2026.
For questions, contact Blue Bird customer service at 1-478-822-2242. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls.
