With no riders aboard, the scarcely-used Racquet Club bus stops at the equally rarely-used UC West bus stop (essentially just a sign post). RIT has since sold the Racquet Club to a private owner, so this route no longer exists. The stop is now served by the new B Lot - Campus route.

This picture is one from my ongoing series exploring the RIT transit system, which I am finally getting around to posting here.

DEFECT #1 - SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY


Posted on: 2002-07-15
Description
On certain buses equipped with cp traveling retractor lap (type 1) seat belts, the plastic cover housing the reserve end of the seat belt web can break.  If the two halves of the cover completely separate, the connector portion of the belt will detach from the cover.  Once detached, the connector rivet can separate from the connector frame causing the frame to become unusable.

Consequence
This condition cannot occur during use, however, the belt will be unsuable and may result in an occupant seating position without a seat belt.  In the event of a vehicle crash, an unbelted individual could be seriously injured or killed.

Corrective Action
Amsafe will notify its customers and provide a plastic outer cover that snaps over the existing cover on units in the field and will replace broken seat belts free of charge.  Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact amsafe at 574-266-8330 or goshen coach at 574-264-7511.

Notes
Also, customers can contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
