Defect: CERTAIN TRANSIT BUSES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE STANDARD NO. 225, "CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS." SOME TRANSIT BUSES WITH A GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATE OF 8500 LBS. TO 10,000 LBS. DID NOT HAVE CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS INSTALLED.
Consequence: THIS DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE STANDARD.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT STARCRAFT AT 1-800-348-7440.

Notes on this record
Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
NHTSA's complaints API and bulk file list no complaint for this make, model and model year in this data build.
