NHTSA's recall notice

As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 24V431000.

Defect description

Endera Motors (Endera) is recalling certain 2021-2024 Endera school buses. The seat assembly may have been installed without reinforcing washers on the floor anchorage bolt. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection."

Safety consequence

Without reinforcement, the seat assembly anchorage can detach, allowing the seat to move during a crash and increasing the risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

Dealers will inspect and install the reinforcing washers to the floor bolts, as necessary free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed by November 11, 2024. Owners may contact Endera customer service at 419-523-3593.
