Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Trans Tech Bus is recalling certain school buses from model years 2007-2014 (Student Safety Transporter, RoadStar, and Student Transporter Aero) manufactured between January 1, 2007, and September 1, 2014, that are equipped with specific Ricon Corporation wheelchair lift models. The platform side plate on these lifts may crack, which can cause the lift platform to separate from the lift and rest against the vehicle's lift door.
If the lift door opens while the platform is in this condition, the platform may fall out, posing an injury risk to the lift operator. To address this issue, Ricon will supply supplemental platform support bumpers to affected owners, and any platform that has already begun cracking will be replaced at no charge. The recall began in November 2014. Affected owners should contact Trans Tech customer service at 1-845-988-2333 or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.
