- Structure:body
- Manufactured:

- Defect:
- Collins is recalling 559 my 2007 through 2009 school buses built on ford e-350 and e-450 chassis from november 3, 2006 to october 1, 2009. these buses may have been produced with the absence of two body mount bolts and associated hardware in 2 of the body/chassis mounting locations immediately behind the rear axle.
