Has your Trans Tech 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 Trans Tech dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

Summary
Transportation collaborative incorporated (tci) is recalling certain model year 2008-2010 trans tech buses equipped with braun century-2 and vista-2 wheelchair lifts. Over time and with frequent use, the roll stop latches on the outer barrier may become bent or misaligned. A wheelchair occupant may defeat or ride over the insufficiently latched roll stop.
Consequence
If this occurs when the lift platform is in an elevated position, the wheelchair’s occupant could fall and sustain injury.
Remedy
Tci will notify owners, and the repairs will be performed by authorized braun dealers free of charge. The recall began on April 25, 2012. Owners may contact tci at 845-988-0419.
