An unsecured wheelchair can move during transit or a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
17 safety recall campaigns.

An unsecured wheelchair can move during transit or a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Two 2017 MICRO BIRD G5 SCHOOL BUSs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it.
