Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Champion Bus, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 transit buses manufactured between March 1, 2013, and June 12, 2015, including American Crusader, American Coach, Challenger, Crusader, CTS-FE, CTS-RE, Defender, EZ Trans, HCAC, HC, DFUC, LF Transport, Premier, and Spirit models. The passenger seat belts in these vehicles may rub against the metal seat frame and become frayed, which could cause them to fail to properly restrain occupants in a crash and increase the risk of injury.
Champion will notify owners of affected buses. To remedy the issue, dealers will install a plastic sleeve over the metal seat frame and replace any seat belts showing evidence of fraying at no cost. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Champion customer service at 1-810-724-1753 extension 562 for further information.
