What was wrong

Defect

Daimler Trucks North America LLC (DTNA) is recalling certain 2014-2019 Thomas Built Buses Saf-T-Liner C2 school buses equipped with propane engines. The propane fuel line may contact the j-hook body support bracket that could cause chafing resulting in a propane leak.

Risk

A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.

Manufacturer remedy

DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the propane line clearance and reroute the line if needed. Any damaged lines will be replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. DTNA issued an interim notification to owners on May 9, 2018. The recall began on July 3, 2018. Owners may contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-547-0712. DTNA's number for this recall is FL-765.
