NHTSA recall 14V232000

What's wrong: Wmk Inc., doing business as mobility works, Inc. (mobility), is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 mobility-modified Ford E-150, and E-250 Transit buses manufactured December 1, 2013, through January 4, 2014, and 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.

Why it matters: 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.

The fix: Mobility will notify owners, and ricon will send the owner a supplemental cover kit and instructions free of charge. The recall began on June 4, 2014.
