- Summary
- Transportation Collaborative, Inc. (TCI) is recalling one model year 2010 TransTech DW6159RLSST and one model year 2012 TransTech SC159DSFP600 school buses equipped with a Ricon wheelchair lift with an optional armored pendant cable. The armored cable may be positioned such that it does not clear the wheelchair lift.
- Consequence
- If the cable does not clear the wheel chair lift it may contact the power lug and if it does not have a nonconductive cover, or it has an improperly installed non-conductive cover, then a short circuit may occur that could result in a fire.
- Remedy
- TCI will notify owners and Ricon will send owners a supplemental cover kit and installation instructions free of charge. This recall campaign began on July 22, 2013. Owners may contact Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884 or by e-mail at recall.admin@wabtec.com.
