On certain buses, the 2 point passenger seat belts installed on the passenger seats located next to the aisle could become frayed from rubbing against the inboard seat bracket edge. A frayed seat belt may fail to properly restrain the occupant in the event of a crash which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace any frayed seat belts. A protective cover will also be added to the seat belts.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2015533.
