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 ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY

Feb 25, 2015
117 units potentially affected
The defect: Farber Specialty Vehicles (Farber) is recalling various specialty vehicles modified by Farber and equipped with model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon Corporation. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.
The risk: If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.
The remedy: Farber will notify owners to take their vehicles to a Ricon dealer or service center who will install supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on March 24, 2015. Owners may contact Farber customer service at 1-800-331-3188, or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884. Farber's number for this recall is 14E-041.

Filed Oct 19, 2007

I JUST RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2007 YUKON. THE TIRES ARE GOODYEAR WRANGLERS (P265/70R17). I MUST CONSTANTLY INFLATE MY TIRES ON A DAILY BASIS AFTER BEING PROMPTED BY THE MONITOR SYSTEM. THE TIRE PRESSURE GOES DOWN TO 27 PSI AND IS SUPPOSED TO BE AT LEAST 37 PSI. I ONLY HAVE 6900 MILES ON MY SUV, BUT NEITHER THE CAR DEALERSHIP NOR THE WARRANTY WANTS TO REPLACE THE TIRES. I HAD A FLAT ON YESTERDAY ON MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE WALLS WERE TORN BECAUSE OF DRIVING ON LOW PRESSURED TIRES, BUT WAS TOLD FROM A TIRE KINGDOM REPRESENTATIVE THAT I RECEIVED FALSE INFORMATION FROM MY DEALER. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM? *TR
