What NHTSA recorded

Certain model year 2000-2003, 2005 and 2006 thomas built minotour school buses built on ford and gm chassis from april 17, 2000, through august 29, 2008. These buses were equipped with an incorrect tire load certification label. The certification labels list "d" load range tires with a recommended cold tire inflation pressure greater than 65 psi. The buses are equipped with load range "e" tires that require a higher minimum tire pressure. Accordingly, these buses fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, "tire selection and rims."

Possible consequence

Incorrect tire information may lead to vehicle overloading that can result in a tire failure which may lead to a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Dtna will notify owners and dealers will replace the incorrect label with a correct label free of charge or, if the owner wishes, they may replace the label themselves. Owners should contact dtna at 1-800-547-0712 or thomas built at 1-336-889-4871 to obtain the label if they wish to affix it themselves. The safety recall began on may 24, 2011.
