Certain buses fail to comply with requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices and associated devices. " the universal bus changed from a wrap-around style rear tail and turn lamp to a flat stop/tail lamp. The wrap-around light had an integral side marker. The new flat lights do not have a side marker. The apollo and concorde models still use the wrap-around light except when led lights are ordered.
Glaval will provide to owners the necessary parts and installation instructions to install the rear side marker lights. Owner notification began July 8, 2002. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact glaval at 1-800-445-2825.
