For the 2006 MID Bus Guide XL. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your MID Bus 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 MID Bus dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Equipment adaptive/mobility

Summary
Certain my 2006 mid bus guide and guide xl school buses manufactured between January 6 and October 5, 2006, equipped with ricon 2000 and 5500 series wheel chair lifts. The lift's interlock switch system may not detect the presence of a passenger (either wheel chair or standee) on the platform lift which fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 403, platform lift systems for motor vehicles.
Consequence
In the event this condition occurs during passenger operations, it may be possible for the wheelchair lift to tip backwards onto the platform if the user is backing onto the lift from inside the vehicle and has the small front wheels fully or partially on the inner barrier when the platform was lowered. A standee could loose his or her balance if they were positioned fully or partly on the inner barrier when the platform is lowered. Either condition could cause personal injury.
