Complaints by model year
Newer model years have had less time on the road, so they naturally have fewer complaints. Compare a year against its neighbors rather than against brand-new models.

Goshen Sentinel recalls
Risk: If the bearings move out of position, the stowed platform may have excessive movement resulting in failure of the platform mounting. This failure could cause the wheel chair lift platform to fall out of the vehicle when the doors are opened, increasing the risk of injury for the lift operator.
Risk: The failure of the seat to stay in place in the event of a crash increases the risk of injury to the occupant in that seat.
Risk: A frayed seat belt fray may fail to properly restrain the seat occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Risk: If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.
Risk: High resistance may cause the board to overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: The cable may contact the power lug at the base of the wheel chair lift causing a short circuit that could result in a fire.
Risk: A wheelchair occupant may defeat or ride over the insufficiently latched roll stop. If this occurs when the lift platform is in an elevated position, the wheelchairs occupant could fall and sustain injury.
Risk: If sufficient arcing occurs, the fuse holder may melt, and may be accompanied by flame, smoke and potential fire.
Risk: When the platform overruns the vehicle floor level and stops at an angle from 15-20 degrees, it is possible for a person in a wheelchair to tip over and for someone standing on the platform to fall, possibly resulting in injuries.
Risk: The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move without the restraint belt properly buckled.
