Problem: Daimler Buses North Carolina LLC (Daimler) is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Sprinter Mini-buses equipped with a Ricon wheelchair lift with an optional armored pendant cable. The armored cable may be positioned such that it does not clear the wheelchair lift.

Risk: 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.

Fix: Daimler will notify owners and Ricon will send the owner a supplemental cover kit and instructions free of charge. The recall began on August 6, 2013. More information can be obtained by contacting Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884 or by e-mail at [email protected].
