Defect:
Kingmor supply, inc. (kingmor) is recalling certain model year 2005-2017 ic ce school buses manufactured september 1, 2005, to may 1, 2017, and modified to be equipped with certain model s2005, s2010, s5005, s5010, s5505, and s5510 wheelchair lifts built by the ricon corporation. the affected lifts are equipped with folding link arms that may have pivot holes that are too big, allowing the bearings to move out of position.
Consequence:

Correction:
Kingmor will notify owners, and ricon dealers will inspect the link arms for damage or for displaced bearings. the platform will be inspected for cracks. any damaged parts will be replaced, free of charge. the recall began on december 18, 2015. owners may contact kingmor customer service at 1-800-782-4474, or ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884. note: these buses and wheelchair lifts were subject to a similar recall in 2014. all vehicles that received that recall remedy are still affected by this recall as well.
