Chassis
No chassis mapping is recorded for this model year. Mappings come only from recall notices that name the chassis, so this is a gap in the record, not a statement about the coach.
Canadian notices
Transport Canada publishes its own notices with their own IDs. They are separate records from the U.S. campaigns above and are never merged with them.
