Micro Bird Recalls 2025-2026 G5e School Buses for Wiring Harness Defect

Micro Bird is recalling 2025-2026 G5e school buses because an incorrectly routed wiring harness may be damaged by a metal bracket, causing a loss of drive power and increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (wiring harness routing) that causes a loss of drive power, which the source text explicitly states increases the risk of a crash. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'structural vehicle defect' or 'significant injury/property-damage reports' (implied by crash risk).
