STRUCTURE:BODY
- The defect
- International Motors, LLC (International) is recalling certain 2016-2026 IC Bus CESB and 2016-2021 RESB school buses. The underfloor reinforcement may not have been installed, compromising the structural integrity of the buses. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages" and 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection."
- What it can cause
- Reduced structural integrity may increase the risk of injury in a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and install a reinforcement channel as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 8, 2025. Owners may contact International customer service at 1-800-448-7825. International's number for this recall is 25514.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 457 vehicles this is a small campaign: 50% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2016 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 9 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
IC Bus vehicles have been recalled over the structure 18 times before this, most recently in February 2023 as 23V066000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 17 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 5 complaints with NHTSA, 2 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 30 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V460000 (structure), 26V168000 (structure), 26V111000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 25V879000 (equipment adaptive/mobility).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by International Motors, LLC with NHTSA on September 4, 2025 as campaign 25V580000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
