NHTSA recall campaign
13E001000
What was wrong
Defect
Ricon is recalling certain S series and K Series wheelchair lifts manufactured after August 1, 2006, and equipped with an optional armored pendant cable. The cable may have been installed such that it doesn't clear the wheelchair lift and without a protective cover, or a misinstalled protective cover.
Risk
The cable may contact the power lug at the base of the wheel chair lift causing a short circuit that could result in a fire.
Manufacturer remedy
Ricon will notify the affected vehicles manufacturers and will provide a supplemental cover kit and instructions, free of charge. This recall campaign began during February 2013. Owners may contact Ricon at 1-818-267-3000. Note: This recall supersedes recall 12E-038.
