NAVISTAR IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008 THROUGH 2012 IC BE, CE, AND FE SCHOOL BUSES MANUFACTURED FROM NOVEMBER 1, 2006, THROUGH MAY 2, 2011. THE REFLECTIVE TAPE FOR THE REAR EXIT DOOR MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TOTALLY COMPLETED. ACCORDINGLY, THE BUSES FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 217, "BUS EMERGENCY EXITS AND WINDOW RETENTION AND RELEASE." THIS NONCOMPLIANCE MAY REDUCE CONSPICUITY OF THE REAR DOOR, REDUCING THE ABILITY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL TO IDENTIFY AND GAIN ACCESS TO THE REAR EXIT DURING AN EMERGENCY, POSSIBLY INCREASING THE OCCUPANT'S RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DURING AN EMERGENCY.
