2017 AMERICAN HERITAGE TROLLEY; 2018 AMERICAN HERITAGE TROLLEY
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Brown Industries, LLC is recalling certain 2017-2018 American Heritage Trolley buses equipped with specific Ricon S-Series and K-Series Titanium Wheelchair Lifts (models K200, K201, K550, K551, S200, S2201, S550, and S551). The wheelchair lift's positioning input cam may fail during use, causing the platform to rise higher than the vehicle's floor. This creates a hazard where wheelchair users can tip inward toward the vehicle when exiting the lift, increasing injury risk.
To address this issue, American Trolley will notify affected owners and Ricon dealers will replace the defective input cams at no cost. The recall began on September 5, 2019. Owners of affected vehicles should contact American Trolley customer service at 1-800-255-6827.
