Defect
Eldorado National-California, Inc. (Eldorado National) is recalling certain model year 2006-2007 MST, and Transmark transit buses manufactured January 1, 2006, to December 30, 2007, equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon Corporation. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.
Safety risk
If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.
Remedy
Eldorado National will notify owners to take buses to a Ricon dealer or service center who will install supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on October 9, 2014. Owners may contact Eldorado National customer service at 1-909-591-9557 or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.
