Problème : Sur certains autobus, l'étiquette indiquant comment utiliser la porte d'entrée comme sortie de secours pourrait ne pas être claire. Cela pourrait retarder l'évacuation des passagers en cas d'urgence. Risques pour la sécurité : Des instructions de sortie de secours difficiles à comprendre pourraient créer de la confusion et retarder l'évacuation des passagers en cas d'urgence et augmenter le risque de blessures. Mesures correctives : Prevost doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur fournir une nouvelle étiquette de sortie de secours et des instructions sur l'endroit où l'installer. Les propriétaires peuvent également prendre rendez-vous pour faire installer l'étiquette dans un centre de service Prevost autorisé.
