Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Ameritrans Bus, Inc. is recalling one 2016 E225 vehicle equipped with a Ricon wheelchair lift. The wheelchair lift positioning input cam may fail during use, causing the lift platform to stop above the vehicle floor level.

To remedy the issue, Ameritrans will notify the vehicle owner and a Ricon dealer will replace the lift positioning input cam at no charge. The recall began April 26, 2019. Affected consumers should contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.
