2016 FREIGHTLINER SPRINTER 3500
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Midway Specialty Vehicles is recalling one 2016 Freightliner Sprinter vehicle equipped with a Ricon Titanium Wheelchair Lift. The wheelchair lift's positioning input cam may fail during use, causing the lift platform to stop above the vehicle floor rather than at floor level. When this occurs, a wheelchair user exiting the lift faces an increased risk of tipping inward toward the vehicle and sustaining an injury.
To remedy the defect, Midway has notified the affected owner and a Ricon dealer will replace the lift positioning input cam at no charge. Owners can contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884 or Midway customer service at 1-574-264-2530 regarding the recall, which began February 27, 2019.
