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.

What is wrong
Comm-trans is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 ada conversion vans built on ford e-150, e-250, and e-350 chassis between december 7, 2007 and december 23, 2009 and fitted 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" button 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.
Risk
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.
Remedy
Comm-trans 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 july 6, 2010. Owners may contact ricon at 1‑818‑267‑3000 or comm-trans at 1‑901‑726‑9394.

What is wrong
Comm-trans is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 ada conversion vans built on ford e-150, e-250, and e-350 chassis between december 7, 2007 and december 23, 2009 and 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.
Risk
The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move without the restraint belt properly buckled.
Remedy
Comm-trans 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 july 6, 2010. Owners may contact ricon at 1‑818‑267‑3000 or comm-trans at 1‑901‑726‑9394.
