2023–2025 Micro Bird G5 School Bus, Micro Bird G5 Transit Bus: Structure recall
NHTSA campaign 25V599000 · 419 units potentially affected · filed Sep 11, 2025
What's wrong
Corp. Micro Bird, Inc. (Micro Bird) is recalling certain 2023-2025 G5 transit buses equipped with a power-assisted service door. The rod-eye rings attaching the front and rear door panels to the opening gear may delaminate, preventing the door from being controlled by the driver.
Why it matters
The door panel may remain in the open position or open unexpectedly, increasing the risk of passenger being injured falling out of the bus.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the service door mechanism for signs of rod-eye ring delamination and repair the mechanism as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 7, 2025. Owners can contact Micro Bird Customer Service at 819-477-2012. Micro Bird's number for this recall is 25-114-UUS. 25-116-RUC.
