Lippert Recalls Bus Windows with Illegible DOT Markings
Lippert is recalling certain bus windows that may have illegible DOT markings, failing to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 205.
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall addresses a compliance issue (illegible markings) that creates a theoretical risk of injury through incorrect replacement glass, but no specific injuries or deaths are reported in the source text.
Plain-English summary
Lippert is recalling certain bus windows because they may have illegible DOT markings. As a result, these windows fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 205, "Glazing Materials."
A missing DOT code mark may result in the window being replaced with an incorrect type of glass, which increases the risk of injury. The full list of affected part numbers is available in the recall report.
Dealers will inspect the window and repair the window markings as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact Lippert customer service at 1-574-538-4514.
