Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

EQUIPMENT

Jun 26, 2013
2 units potentially affected
The defect: 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.
The 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.
The 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].
