The defect
Temsa Global is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 TS35C motorcoach buses manufactured November 2010 through May 2013 and 2012-2013 TS30 motorcoach buses manufactured November 2011 through April 2013 and equipped with 3-point seat belts. The bolts used for the installation of the seat were tighted over their torque specification which may cause the bolts to fail.
The risk
In the event of a crash, the bolts may break, failing to properly anchor the seat, increasing the risk of injury.
