Defect Description
Trans Tech Bus is recalling certain model year 2013 SC139DSFP500 school buses equipped with certain Ricon S-series and K-series wheelchair lifts with an optional armored pendant cable. The armored cable may be positioned such that it does not clear the wheelchair lift.
Consequence / Hazard
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.
Proposed Solution
Trans Tech Bus will notify owners and Ricon will send the owner a supplemental cover kit and instructions, free of charge. The recall began on June 18, 2014. Owners may contact Trans Tech Bus customer service at 1-845-988-2333, or Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884 or by e-mail at [email protected].
