2005 Coach And Equipment Phoenix recalls
Recall 10V-652: Equipment
Problem: Coach and equipment is recalling certain buses equipped with trans air ta 73 evaporators. The evaporator utilizes a power resistor to regulate blower speed. Should a short occur in the "low or medium speed" circuit while the blower is in high speed, the short will cause the supply voltage to feedback through the resistor to ground, not drawing enough current to trip the fuse.
Risk: This would cause the resistor temperature to rise to a point where it will melt and possibly ignite the plastic blower housing to which it is mounted. The overheating can result in a fire.
Fix: Coach and equipment in cooperation with trans air will install a thermal shutdown device in series with the speed resistors. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on december 29, 2010. Owners may contact trans air warranty and service center at 1-800-673-2446.
Recall 10V-262: Equipment Adaptive/Mobility
Problem: Coach & equipment is recalling certain model year 2005 through 2007 phoenix shuttle buses manufactured from march 2005 through june 2007 and equipped with ricon s and k series platform style wheelchair lifts. The vertical support arms were improperly welded.
Risk: In the event this condition occurs during passenger operations it may not be possible to close the lift door causing the vehicle interlocks to remain engaged preventing movement of the vehicle or the ability to load or unload passengers with disabilities from the vehicle.
Fix: Coach & equipment will notify owners and the repairs will be performed by authorized ricon dealers free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during july 2010. Owners may contact ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884 or coach & equipment at 1-315-536-2321.
Recall 08V-474: Equipment Adaptive/Mobility
Problem: Coach and equipment is recalling 594 my 2005-2007 phoenix paratransit buses equipped with ricon platform style wheelchair lifts for failing to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 404, "platform lift installations in motor vehicles." the threshold warning system may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user in a certain spot within the defined threshold area.
Risk: The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move unintentionally.
Fix: Coach and equipment is working with ricon to correct the wheelchair lifts free of charge (Please see 07e095). Owners may contact ricon at 1-818-267-3000 or coach and equipment at 1-315-536-2321.
Recall 08V-475: Equipment Adaptive/Mobility
Problem: Coach and equipment is recalling 335 my 2005-2006 phoenix paratransit buses 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 systems for motor vehicles." the anti-stow interlock may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user. The pressure sensing switch that detects the presence of weight on the platform was not adjusted to the necessary sensitivity level. The lift could stow even though someone or something is still on the lift.
Risk: A lift occupant can be injured should the lift begin to stow unintentionally.
Fix: Coach and equipment is working with ricon to correct the wheelchair lifts (Please see 07e097). Owners may contact ricon at 1-800-322-2884 or coach and equipment at 1-315-536-2321.
