2011 ELDORADO AXESS; 2011 ELDORADO E-Z RIDER II MAX
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Eldorado National is recalling certain 2011 Axess and EZ Rider II Max buses manufactured between October 1, 2010 and October 31, 2010 that are equipped with Ricon 3-Minute Urban Transit Bus egress window sets. The handles that open the emergency egress passenger windows may break due to incorrect material composition, which reduces the handle's strength. If a handle fails during an emergency, passengers could become trapped in the vehicle and suffer injury.
Eldorado National will notify owners of affected buses, and authorized dealers will replace the defective handles at no charge. The recall began on November 16, 2012. Owners of affected buses should contact Eldorado National at 1-937-596-7965 for more information about the recall and to arrange for the replacement of their egress window handles.
