Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Eldorado National-Kansas is recalling certain 2012-2018 transit buses equipped with Ricon S-Series and K-Series Titanium wheelchair lifts. The wheelchair lift platform can stop above the vehicle floor due to a faulty positioning input cam, which creates a tipping hazard for wheelchair users as they exit the lift. This defect violates federal safety standards for platform lift systems.
To remedy the issue, Ricon dealers will replace the faulty injection molded cam with an aluminum machined cam at no cost. Affected owners should contact Eldorado National-Kansas customer service at 1-800-955-4236 to arrange the replacement. The recall notification process began on October 24, 2018.
