The popular school bus company Blue Bird has issued a recall on their buses.  Blue Bird has recalled more than 2,500 school buses, including 400 transit buses.  The recall will address a problem that affects a steering issue, as well as a propane fuel leak.

The steering problem affects buses made between 2011 and May of last year.  The issue with the buses is when the steering shaft clamp comes into contact with a rubber close-out boot on the floor. 

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the fuel leak problem can happen in “severe environments” when the aluminum fuel line fitting corrodes.  This is considered a fire hazard.
