  Sur certains véhicules munis d'une plate-forme de levage de fauteuil roulant Ricon, en fonction du lieu de la pose, le dispositif de protection du fil de la commande portative pourrait entrer en contact avec le dispositif d'alimentation de la pompe hydraulique. Comme le dispositif de protection est conducteur d'électricité, cela causerait un court-circuit à courant élevé et un incendie, ce qui pourrait blesser quelqu'un ou endommager des biens matériels. Correction : On devra fournir aux propriétaires une trousse de recouvrement supplémentaire et un dispositif de recouvrement non conducteur pour le fil de commande.

  Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain model year 2006-2014 Glaval Universal, Primetime, Sport, Titan, and Titan II transit and shuttle buses manufactured January 1, 2006, to September 26, 2014, and equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.

  Risque: 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.

  Correctif: Forest River will notify owners to take buses 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 December 1, 2014. Owners may contact Glaval customer service at 1-800-445-2825 or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.

The armored cable may be positioned such that it does not clear the wheelchair lift.

  Glaval Bus is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 transit buses equipped with Speciality Manufacturing Inc. (SMI) ProLo roof escape hatches. Increased friction between the rear plate assemblies, p/no. 009327, and the nylon rear pop-up support, p/no. 008956, may result in opening force of the ProLo roof hatches that exceeds Federal standard requirements. Thus, these hatches fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 217, "Bus Emergency Exits and Window Retention and Release."

  Risque: In the event of an emergency, passengers' exit from the bus may be hindered, possibly resulting in injury to the vehicle occupants.

  Correctif: Glaval Bus will notify owners. SMI will provide service kits along with repair instructions to dealers and owners, free of charge. The safety recall began on August 17, 2012. Owners may contact Glaval Bus at 1-574-262-2212 or SMI at 1-800-951-7867.
