NHTSA recall 10V164000
Suspension · Braun Corporation
Details
What's wrong: During conversion, the chassis was raised and the floor was lowered to accommodate wheelchair accessibility features. In raising the chassis, the rear spring hats come into closer proximity to the rear tires. In rough or aggressive driving situations the tires may intermittently contact the rear spring hats.
Why it matters: Contact between the tire spring hat may wear a hole in the tire over time. This may result in loss of vehicle control in the event of tire pressure loss increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Braun will notify owners and repair the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall began on June 4, 2010.
