What is wrong
FLOOR DETERIORATION DUE TO WATER SEEPAGE.
What can happen
FLOOR DETERIORATION CAN CAUSE THE FLOOR TO COLLAPSE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN INJURY TO PASSENGERS OR OPERATORS.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
THE FLOORS OF ALL THE RECALLED BUSES WILL BE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, A "WATER FLOW" TEST WILL BE CONDUCTED ON ALL BUSES TO DETERMINE LEAKAGE SOURCES AND MAGNITUDE. ON THE OLD STYLE BUSES, WATER LEAKS WILL BE REMEDIED BY RESEALING THE DRIP RAIL AND FRONT COWL; AND ON NEW STYLE BUSES, RESPACING THE "RUB RAIL" AWAY FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE "WATERSHED," CREATING A 3/16 INCH GAP WHICH WILL ALLOW THE WATER TO FLOW OFF THE BUS.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
