Recall campaigns
Defect, as filed: Access mobility is recalling 3 model year 2004 ford e-250 and model year 2006 dodge sprinter vans equipped with ricon platform style wheelchair lifts. These lifts fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 403, "platform lift system accessible for motor vehicles." the anti-stow interlock may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user.
