On certain buses equipped with a Ricon wheelchair lift, the lift platform sides may crack, which could cause the lift to lean against the vehicle door(s) and potentially fall out of the vehicle when the doors are opened, putting the lift operator at risk of injury. Correction: Ricon Corporation repair facilities will inspect lift platforms, link arms and bearings for cracks, damage or misalignment and if found to be damaged, link arms and/or platform will be replaced. Note: This recall supersedes recall 2014-359. Vehicles repaired under the previous recall will require re-inspection and potential repair.

32 units affected
On certain buses, the exhaust system hanger may fail, possibly causing damage to the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) housings. Should this occur, the housings could separate and become a road hazard, posing a risk to motorists and bystanders. Correction: Dealers will provide new bolted hanger assemblies and support cables.
- Seats And Restraints#2010279
600 units affected
On certain buses, the driver's seat shock damper may break allowing the driver's seat to unexpectedly drop to the floor without warning. In the event this situation should occur while the bus is in operation, the driver may lose control of the vehicle, possibly resulting in a crash causing property damage or personal injury to occupants of passengers or pedestrians. Correction: Dealers will replace the seat shock if necessary.
