Daimler Trucks North America, LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2023 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner EFX school buses. The buses may not have a sufficient number of emergency exits.

An insufficient number of emergency exits can delay passengers from exiting the vehicle during an emergency, increasing their risk of injury.
