2021 Micro Bird G5 Commercial Bus - Steering
Micro Bird is recalling approximately 75 electric buses from model years 2021-2026 because the power steering pump may fail during startup or while driving, causing a sudden loss of power steering assist. A loss of power steering assist makes steering harder to control, particularly at low speeds, and could increase crash risk. Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to bring their buses to a dealership for a power steering pump software update.
