A passenger can approach the exposed lift doorway without the audible alarm alerting them of their proximity to the threshold.

- The fix
- International is working with braun corporation to have the doorway lift fixed free of charge (please see 06e094). Owners may contact braun corporation at 1-800-946-7513 or international at 1-800-448-7825.

- The risk
- If the door is held in the closed position, it may not perform its intended emergency function, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
- The fix
- Ic will notify owners and repair the affected buses free of charge. The recall began on march 16, 2007. Owners can contact ic at 1-800-843-5615 or international at 1-800-448-7825.
- The problem
- Certain ic school and commercial buses manufactured between october 11, 2005, and october 31, 2006. These buses have the following safety issues: If the driver's seat is in the highest and most rear position, the back of the seat may lean against a barrier behind the seat, or against the seat back. This will prevent the seat belt from retracting which fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, Seat belt assemblies. When adjust the seat to a higher position, the driver may pull the seat past the last stop so that the seat sits on the adjusting pin, which allows the seat to teeter on top of the pin. If over-travel occurs, the upper seat pedestal tube could separate from the lower pedestal tube during vehicle operation. If the driver is sitting in the driver's seat and reaches to adjust the seat height, their weight will cause the seat to drop, which could result in their hand being pinched between the seat and the lever. The driver's seat is difficult to adjust to a higher position because of the additional weight of the all belts to seat (abts) design.
- The risk
- THIS MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.
- The fix
- Ic will notify owners and repair the seats free of charge. The recall began on february 23, 2007. Owners may contact ic at 1-800-448-7825.
