Motor Coach Industries is recalling certain 2005-2009 E4500 and 2005-2012 J4500 motorcoaches equipped with Ricon Baylift Wheelchair Lifts. The outer barrier on these lifts may fail if a mobility device pushes into it, which could injure someone using the lift. The vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for platform lift systems.
Ricon will reinforce the outer barrier with additional supports at no cost to owners. Owners who received notification letters mailed on October 18, 2021, should contact Ricon Customer Service at (800) 322-2884, email admin21e068@Wabtec.com, locate a Ricon servicing dealer at www.riconcorp.com, or contact Motor Coach Industries customer service at 1-800-241-2947 (recall number R21-024).

Motor Coach Industries (MCI) is recalling certain 2005-2009 E4500 and 2005-2012 J4500 motorcoaches equipped with Ricon Baylift Wheelchair Lifts. When the lift's outer barrier is fully deployed, it may not withstand a sufficient amount of force, which could cause it to fail. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 403, "Platform Lift Systems," and number 404, "Platform lift installations."
