Equipment adaptive/mobility
- What is wrong
- On certain transit buses equipped with lift-u wheelchair lifts, it is possible for a person to wedge their feet under the solid bar barrier linkage.
- Risk
- While sitting in a wheelchair, a person with no shoes and who does not have control of their feet could twist their feet and get them forced under the linkage which could result in an injury.
- Remedy
- Daimlerchrysler commercial is working with lift-u to repair these buses (please see 06e-093). Owners will receive a free repair kit along with installation instructions free of charge. Owners may contact lift-u at 209‑838‑2400 or orion bus at 905‑403‑7807.
Recall number 07V024000 · Recall details
Visibility: rearview mirrors/devices
- What is wrong
- The left hand rearview mirror can be adjusted to a position which interferes with the opening of the emergency exit window located adjacent to the driver position. In such cases, the vehicle is in non-compliance with fmvss no. 217, "bus window retention and release."
- Risk
- The passengers may be subjected to increased risk ofinjury if an accident occurrs and the emergency exit cannot not be used.
- Remedy
- Dealers will fix the left rearview mirror arm in a position to allow a clear path for the emergency window to extend: this will operate independent of the adjustment of the mirror head for driver's vision.
