GOSHEN COACH recall for equipment adaptive/mobility, reported to NHTSA on Apr 24, 2006, covering about 13 vehicles.
The problem
Certain buses equipped with ricon wheelchair lifts may have defective welds on the vertical arms of the wheelchair lifts.
The risk
During passenger operations it may not be possible to close the lift door causing the vehicle interlocks to remain engaged preventing movement of the vehicle or the ability to load or unload passengers with disabilities from the vehicle.
The fix
Goshen is working with ricon to remedy these vehicles. Ricon will replace the vertical arms that may contain the defective welds free of charge. Owners may contact ricon at 1-818-267-3000 or goshen at 1-800-326-2062.
