Issue
On certain school buses, the letters on the instruction labels for the emergency exits are too small. This could make it difficult to read the label. Canadian regulations require a minimum size for the letters.
Safety Risk
Instructions for an emergency exit that are difficult to read could delay persons from exiting the bus in an emergency and increase the risk of injury.
Corrective Actions
Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your school bus to a DTNA authorized service facility to increase the height of the letters on the instruction labels.
