Blue Bird wheelchair lift positioning input cam may fail while the lift is in use, allowing the platform to travel higher than the vehicle's floor height.
The short version
Blue Bird Body Company reported a problem with the equipment adaptive/mobility. Here is what owners need to know.
The wheelchair lift positioning input cam may fail while the lift is in use, allowing the platform to travel higher than the vehicle's floor height. As such, this vehicle fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 403, "Platform Lift Systems."
If the wheelchair lift platform raises above the height of the vehicle floor, the wheelchair user could fall inwards toward the vehicle, increasing their risk of injury.
Blue Bird will notify owners, and Ricon dealers will replace the wheelchair lift positioning input cam, free of charge.
