The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):

  • Blue Bird Body Company is recalling certain 2020-2021 Vision and All American school buses equipped with factory-installed air conditioning (A/C) systems. The A/C circuit breaker may have been installed incorrectly. Incorrect installation of the air conditioning circuit breaker may increase the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 1,239 vehicles are affected by this recall.
  • Blue Bird Body Company is recalling certain 2020-2021 Vision and All American buses equipped with factory-installed air conditioning (A/C) systems. The A/C circuit breaker may have been installed incorrectly. Incorrect installation of the air conditioning circuit breaker increases the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 46 vehicles are affected by this recall.
  • Maintainer Corporation of Iowa is recalling certain modified 2019-2020 International CV 515 and Chevrolet Silverado tow vehicles equipped with Allison 2700 series transmissions with Chelsea Power Take-Offs (PTO). The PTOs were installed incorrectly and as a result, the attachment hardware may loosen over time. If the PTO attachment hardware loosens it could cause a loss of transmission fluid which may result in the rear wheel locking up, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 16 vehicles are affected by this recall.
