2015 Trans Tech CST recalls
Recall 19V-198: Equipment Adaptive/Mobility
Problem: Transportation Collaborative, Inc. (TCI) is recalling certain 2015 and 2017 Transtech Buses equipped with Ricon S-Series and K-Series wheel chair lifts. 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, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 403, "Platform Lift Systems."
Risk: If the wheelchair lift platform stops above the vehicle floor, the wheelchair user can tip inwards toward the vehicle when exiting the lift, increasing their risk of injury.
Fix: TCI will notify owners and Ricon dealers will replace the lift positioning input cam, free of charge. The recall began April 24, 2019. Owners may contact TCI customer service at 1-845-988-0419. Transportation Collaborative's number for this recall is 18E-044.
Recall 17V-399: Equipment
Problem: Transportation Collaborative, Inc. (Transportation Collaborative) is recalling certain 2012-2017 Transtech Bus ST Aero, SST, CST, Horizon, and RoadStar transit buses equipped with Bus-Air air conditioning systems. These air conditioning systems use a 30AMP in-line fuse that may short against the screw that secures the fuse holder.
Risk: If the fuse short circuits, the holder may overheat and melt, increasing the risk of a fire.
Fix: Transportation Collaborative will notify owners, and dealers will install an in-line mini fuse holder, free of charge. The recall began on August 21, 2017. Owners may contact Transportation Collaborative customer service at 1-845-988-0419.
