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 | Glaval bus is recalling certain model year 2007 through 2010 transit buses manufactured between october 2007 through december 2009, equipped with certain ricon s series and k series l-model wheelchair lifts. due to a problem in the software that controls the lift's up function, should the up switch be released before the floor level limit switch is activated, the lift may continue its upward travel and may overrun the floor level cut off point. | |||||||||||||||
Consequence Summary | When the platform overruns the vehicle floor level and stops at an angle from 15-20 degrees, it is possible for a person in a wheelchair to tip over and for someone standing on the platform to fall, possibly resulting in injuries. | |||||||||||||||
Corrective Summary | Glaval bus will notify owners and the repairs will be performed by authorized ricon dealers free of charge. a software solution for this safety defect is under investigation. until the software solution is available, ricon will provide owners with a bulletin outlining proper wheelchair lift operation and will ship owners a dvd-based training aid to promote proper lift operation at no cost. 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 | Glaval is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2007 transit buses built on ford, gmc, chevrolet, and freightliner chassis and equipped with carrier genv em-1 evaporator units. due to time, temperature, and/or vibration, the fuse may loosen in the fuse holder resulting in high resistance and arcing. | |||||||||||||||

Corrective Summary | Glaval will notify owners and provide information on how to obtain the retrofit kit from carrier along with repair instructions. this service will be performed free of charge. the recall is expected to begin during january 2012.

Defect Summary | Glaval bus is recalling 45 model year 2008 and 2009 transit buses manufactured between july 1, 2008 and january 31, 2009, equipped with carrier k410 rooftop mounted condensers. the cover of the condenser assembly may interfere with the coil header when the cover is placed on the unit assembly. the potential interference prevents the cover from resting on the unit mounting surface, creating a gap between the cover and unit assembly. | |||||||||||||||
Consequence Summary | This condition will not permit the cover fasteners to securely clamp the cover to the unit assembly, which may result in the cover dislocating from the unit during operation, possibly causing a crash or cause injury to pedestrians. | |||||||||||||||
Corrective Summary | Glaval will notify owners and repair the buses free of charge. the safety recall is expected to begin during july 2009. owners may contact glaval at 1-800-333-0510 or carrier at 1-800-673-2431. | |||||||||||||||
