- What is wrong
- Mobility Works (WMK Inc.) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Ford E-150, E-250, E-350, and Chevrolet Express 2500 vans manufactured January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2015, and equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts by Ricon. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack. Additionally, the lifts are equipped with folding link arms that may have pivot holes that are too big, allowing the bearings to move out of position.
- Risk
- If the platform side plates crack or the platform mounting fails from out-of-position bearings, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the vehicle's doors are opened, the platform may fall onto the lift operator, increasing their risk of injury.
- Remedy
- Mobility Works will notify owners, and Ricon dealers will inspect the link arms for damage or for displaced bearings. The platform will be inspected for cracks. Any damaged parts will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on June 17, 2016. Owners may contact Mobility Works customer service at 1‑800‑769‑8267. Mobility Works' number for this recall is 16E-020.

Driving at 70 miles per hour on 1nterstate 4 in the center of 3 lanes the car lost power and after trying to accelerate,it completely shut down. We were fortunate to be able to cross over to the right lane and eventually find a place on the shoulder of the road. This car has the push button start and cannot be started without depressing the brake.in this situation it would probably caused a chain reaction accident.after reading some other complaints on this happening there has to be some way this can be prevented.the analysis of this problem by the dealership is the throttle body assembly was faulty.this was a problem with all ford edges from 2010 and other vehicles.I paid $572.00 when I had to have it replaced on my 2010 edge,because I was told it was not part of the drive train.
