Defect description

CHTC Bus Group (CHTC) is recalling certain 2016-2018 HT-35 and HT-45 buses equipped with ADA wheel chair platform lifts. The lift devices have not completed the compliance certification process. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 403, "Platform Lift Devices" and 404, "Platform Lift Installations."

Safety risk

Lift devices that have not completed compliance certification cannot be assumed to be safe, increasing the risk of injury.

Manufacturer remedy

CHTC has removed the non-compliant wheelchair platform lifts, thereby remedying all of the affected vehicles. Owner letters will not be sent. The recall began February 19, 2020. Owners may contact CHTC customer service at 1-909-993-0858.
