Certain my 2007 us bus sturdibus school or activity buses single and dual rear wheel models built on the gmt 610 chevrolet express chassis manufactured between september 1, 2006, and september 30, 2007, fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment." when the brakes are applied, the stop lamps will illuminate. when the brake pedal is released, the stop lamps are not longer illuminated but the rear brakes may still be applied. the brake may release after a few seconds or after the next firm brake pedal application.
