| Defect Summary | Certain buses equipped with ricon platform style wheelchair lifts fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 403, platform lift systems for motor vehicles. the inner barrier interlock switch system in the lift baseplate may not detect the presence of a passenger (either wheelchair or standee) on the barrier and can allow the platform to move down more than one inch below floor level when occupied. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | In the event this condition occurs during passenger operations, it may be possible for the wheelchair to tip backwards onto the platform if the user is backing onto the lift from inside the vehicle and has the small front wheels fully or partially on the inner barrier when the platform was lowered. a person standing could lose his or her balance if they were positioned fully or partly on the inner barrier when the platform was lowered. either condition could cause personal injury. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Glaval bus is working with ricon to repair these wheelchair lifts (please see 06e101). owners can contact ricon at 800-322-2884 or glaval bus at 574-262-2212. | |||||||||||||||

| Defect Summary | Glaval bus is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2010 universal, titan, titan ii, primetime, sport, and apollo transit buses manufactured between december 2007 and december 2009 fitted with ricon public use lifts. the restraint belt on these lifts was designed to prevent the lift from moving, unless the tongue of the belt is fully engaged and latched in the buckle. ricon has discovered, however, that it is possible for the operator to insert the belt tongue into the buckle without fully engaging the latching mechanism. in this case, the restraint belt would appear to be latched, and the operator could run the lift. if the restraint belt tongue is not fully engaged into the restraint belt buckle, and latched, the lift may operate with an occupant on the platform. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move without the restraint belt properly buckled. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Glaval bus is working with ricon and ricon will be performing the remedy for this campaign. please see ricon's defect report 09e-060. ricon will provide customers with a warning decal and a dvd-based training aid. the safety recall began on april 26, 2010. owners may contact ricon at 1-818-267-3000 or glaval bus at 1-800-322-2884. | |||||||||||||||

| Defect Summary | Certain transit buses equipped with braun platform lifts fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 404, platform lift installations in motor vehicles. a passenger can approach the exposed lift doorway without the audible alarm alerting them of their proximity to the threshold. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | Should the threshold warning system fail to operate, the lift user can fall from the vehicle and be seriously injured. | |||||||||||||||
