What NHTSA recorded

Certification labels contain errors in the vin code. On some 1984 and 1985 buses the check digit contains a "dash (-)" rather than the required number (8). Also on some 1984 buses the code for the year of manufacturer is incorrect. The tenth digit contains a "d" (1984) instead of an "e" (1985). Consequence of defect: buses are not in compliance with fmvss 115.

Remedy

Install a new certification label with the correct vin code where the check digit is incorrect. Also notify the owners concerning the year of manufacturer error.
