10 recalls found in NHTSA data as of September 22, 2026

For the 2007 Blue Bird Micro Bird. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your Blue Bird been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Blue Bird dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2007 Blue Bird Micro Bird recalls, newest first

November 4, 2015NHTSA 15V73100090 vehicles potentially affected

Equipment adaptive/mobility

Summary
Blue Bird Body Company (Blue Bird) is recalling certain model year 2007-2015 All American and Vision and 2007-2011 Micro Bird transit buses equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured January 1, 2006, to August 25, 2014 by the Ricon Corporation. The affected lifts are equipped with folding link arms that may have pivot holes that are too big, allowing the bearings to move out of position.
Consequence
If the bearings move out of position, the stowed platform may have excessive movement resulting in failure of the platform mounting. This failure could cause the wheel chair lift platform to fall out of the vehicle when the doors are opened, increasing the risk of injury for the lift operator.
Remedy
Blue Bird will notify owners, and Ricon dealers will inspect the link arms for damage or for displaced bearings. The platform will be inspected for cracks. Any damaged parts will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on December 1, 2015. Owners may contact Blue Bird customer service at 1-478-822-2242, or Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884.

Equipment › Other › Labels

Summary
Certain model year 2006 through 2010 blue bird micro bird single rear wheel model school buses manufactured from August 31, 2005 through September 27, 2009, fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, "tire selection and rims." if the vehicle is not equipped with a spare tire, then the tire and loading placard should indicate "none" under the size and recommended tire inflation pressure. The placard listed inflation pressure for a spare tire that was the same as the front tire inflation pressure.
Consequence
Inflation pressure required for the rear tires could be higher than the front tire which could cause premature tire wear resulting in a potential tire failure, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy
Blue bird will provide replacement tire and loading placards with the appropriate spare tire indicated to owners free of charge. The campaign began on December 29, 2009. Owners may contact blue bird at 1-478-822-2242.
