For the 2007 Startrans Senator HD. 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 Startrans 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 Startrans dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Equipment › Appliance › Air conditioner

Summary

Consequence
If sufficient arcing occurs, the fuse holder may melt, and a vehicle fire may occur.
Remedy
Startrans will notify owners and provide information on how to obtain the retrofit kit from carrier along with repair instructions. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on April 18, 2011. (see carrier's recall campaign 11E-003.) owners may contact carrier at 1-800-793-4741 or startrans at 1- 877-258-1391.

Equipment

Summary
Startrans is recalling certain model year 2006 and 2007 candidate, candidate II, senator hd, trolley, president, senator, and senator II transit buses equipped with trans/air TA73 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
Trans/air, in cooperation with startrans, 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 January 11, 2011. Owners may contact trans/air warranty and service center at 1-800-673-2446.

Equipment adaptive/mobility

Summary
Startrans bus is recalling certain model year 2007 through 2010 candidate, candidate II, senator, senator hd, president, trolley, senator II, and sentinal transit buses manufactured from December 2007 through December 18, 2009 and fitted with ricon public use lifts. The restraint belt on these lifts was designed to prevent the lift from moving, unless the tongue of the belt is fully engaged and latched in the buckle. Ricon has discovered, however, that it is possible for the operator to insert the belt tongue into the buckle without fully engaging the latching mechanism. In this case, the restraint belt would appear to be latched, and the operator could run the lift. If the restraint belt tongue is not fully engaged into the restraint belt buckle, and latched, the lift may operate with an occupant on the platform.
Consequence
The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move without the restraint belt properly buckled.
Remedy
Startrans bus is working with ricon and ricon will be performing the remedy for this campaign. Please see ricon's defect report 09E-060. Ricon will provide customers with a warning decal and a dvd-based training aid. The safety recall began on July 12, 2010. Owners may contact ricon at 1-818-267-3000 or startrans bus at 1-574-642-0811.
