Transport Canada recalls

Accessories#2018247May 9, 2018
3 units affected
On certain buses built on a Ford chassis and equipped with a wheelchair lift, the shift interlock may not prevent the wheelchair lift from operating while the vehicle gear shifter is in neutral or drive. If the vehicle were to move while the wheelchair lift is in operation, there would be an increased risk of injury. Correction: Daimler Trucks of North America Service Facilities will inspect the wheelchair lift wiring and repair as necessary.
Seats And Restraints#2018142March 26, 2018
707 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with Syntec S3B non-restraint seats, under extreme operating conditions, such as adverse road conditions, repetitive shock loads, or occupant abuse, a metal fatigue crack may develop on the rear wall mount bracket of the seat. Over time, this could lead to the wall mount bracket fracturing, which in the event of a crash, could increase the risk of injury to seat occupants. Correction: Daimler Trucks of North America Service Facilities will inspect seats and install an additional wall bracket between the wall rail and the seat as necessary.
