Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
A stop arm that does not meet the dimensional requirements may be less noticeable and thereby reduce the visibility of a stopped school bus, increasing the risk of a pedestrian injury.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
Woodstock will notify owners, and will send those that purchased the stop arms a replacement border decal kit, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Woodstock at 1-845-247-3429.

Woodstock Safety Mirror Co. (Woodstock) is recalling certain Stop Arms, model number 03G13CH (part number 8000-1135C), manufactured July 3, 2013, to September 1, 2013. The affected stop arms have a border width of 10mm instead of the required 12mm. As a result, the front side of stop signal arm's border is obscured by more than the maximum 15 percent. As such, these stop arms fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 131, "School Bus Pedestrian Safety Devices."
This recall was issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Recall Registry summarises it — always confirm the details at the source.
Their exact wording: “Woodstock Safety Mirror Co. — Incorrect Stop Signal Arm Border/FMVSS 131”
