On certain school buses, the rivet pattern may be incorrect in sections of the rear roof joint that attaches to the rear roof cap. Without the appropriate amount of roof rivets, the buses fail to conform with the requirements of CMVSS 221 - School Bus Body Joint Strength. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, install additional rivets.
