Has your Elkhart been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Elkhart dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2005 Elkhart ECI recalls, newest first

December 15, 2010NHTSA 10V64100052 vehicles potentially affected

Equipment

Summary
Elkhart coach is recalling certain buses equipped with trans air ta 73 evaporators. The evaporator utilizes a power resistor to regulate blower speed. Should a short occur in the "low or medium speed" circuit while the blower is in high speed, the short will cause the supply voltage to feedback through the resistor to ground, not drawing enough current to trip the fuse.
Consequence
This would cause the resistor temperature to rise to a point where it will melt and possibly ignite the plastic blower housing to which it is mounted. The overheating can result in a fire.
Remedy
Elkhart coach in cooperation with trans air will install a thermal shutdown device in series with the speed resistors. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on December 15, 2010. Owners may contact trans air warranty and service center at 1-800-673-2446.

Equipment adaptive/mobility

Summary
Elkhart coach is recalling 9 my 2005-2007 eci and ecii buses equipped with ricon platform style wheelchair lifts.

The lift could stow even though someone or something is still on the lift.
Consequence
