What is wrong
Transportation Collaborative, Inc. (Transportation Collaborative) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Trans Tech Student Safety Trasnporter (SST) and ST Aero school buses manufactured from January 2, 2014, through January 1, 2016, 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
Transportation Collaborative 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 28, 2016. Owners may contact Transportation Collaborative customer service at 1‑845‑988‑0419.
