Home › Cars & vehicles › Ricon Corporation — Wheelchair Lift may Raise…
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the wheelchair lift platform stops above the vehicle floor, the wheelchair user can tip inwards toward the vehicle when exiting the lift, increasing their risk of injury.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
Ricon will notify owners and dealers will replace the lift positioning input cam, free of charge. Owners may contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.

Ricon Corporation (Ricon) is recalling certain S-Series and K-Series Titanium Wheelchair Lifts, models K200, K201, K550, K551, S200, S2201, S550 and S551. The wheelchair lift positioning input cam may fail while the lift is in use, allowing the platform to travel higher than the vehicle's floor height. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 403, "Platform Lift Systems."
This recall was issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Recall Registry summarises it — always confirm the details at the source.
