Defect description

Farber Specialty Vehicles (Farber) is recalling one 2011 Ford Chassis Mobile Classroom and one 2012 Ford 550 Bomb Response Unit vehicle 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.

Safety 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.

Manufacturer remedy

Farber will notify owners and Ricon will send owners a supplemental cover kit and instructions free of charge. The recall began on July 22, 2013. Owners may contact Farber at 1-800-331-3188 or Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884 or by e-mail at [email protected].

Owner complaints

A complaint is one person's report to a federal agency. It is not a finding.
