ON CERTAIN SCHOOL BUSES, AN INCORRECT BRAKE PEDAL WAS INSTALLED, LEADING TO MISALIGNMENT. MISALIGNMENT, IN CONJUNCTION WITH A FORCE ACTUATED BRAKE SWITCH, CAN CAUSE DELAYED BRAKE LIGHT ACTIVATION DURING LIGHT BRAKING APPLICATIONS. IN SOME LIGHT BRAKING SITUATIONS, THE VEHICLE CAN COME TO A COMPLETE STOP WITHOUT ACTIVATION OF THE BRAKE LIGHTS.
RiskIF THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT ACTIVATE PROPERLY UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, IT COULD LEAD TO A CRASH.
