Wheelchair Lift - Platform Cracking

Hazard

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.

What You Should Do

Remedy

OBS will notify owners to take buses to a Ricon dealer or service center who will inspect and install supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. Owners may contact OBS customer service at 1-330-453-3725. OBS' number for this recall is OBS # 01-15.
