Summary:
Turtle Top is recalling certain model year 2013 Odyssey and Van Terra transit buses manufactured April 11, 2013, through December 5, 2013, and equipped with certain Ricon S series and K series wheelchair lifts with an optional armored pendant cable. The armored cable may be positioned such that it does not clear the wheelchair lift. |
||
|
Consequence:
If the cable does not clear the wheel chair lift it may contact the power lug and if it does not have a nonconductive cover, or it has an improperly installed nonconductive cover, a short circuit may occur that could result in a fire. |
||
|
Remedy:
Turtle Top will notify owners, and Ricon will send the owner a supplemental cover kit and instructions, free of charge. The recall began in June 2014. Owners may contact Turtle Top customer service at 1-800-296-2105 or Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884 or by e-mail at recall.admin"wabtec.com.
