Startrans Mfsab recalls

  • Recall 19V542000Jul 24, 2019951 vehiclesModel years 2019

    Risk: If the bolts loosen, the seat belt assembly may fail to restrain the occupant in the event of a crash, increasing their risk of injury.

  • Recall 18V722000Oct 15, 2018872 vehiclesModel years 2019

    Risk: If the seat foam does not absorb enough impact energy, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

  • Recall 16V369000May 26, 2016759 vehiclesModel years 2008–2014

    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.

  • Recall 13V083000Feb 28, 20134 vehiclesModel years 2009–2010

    Risk: If the cable does not clear the wheel chair lift it may contact the power lug and if it does not have a nonconductive cover, or it has an improperly installed non-conductive cover, then a short circuit may occur that could result in a fire.

  • Recall 12V185000Apr 27, 20124 vehiclesModel years 2009–2010

    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 wheelchair’s occupant could fall and sustain injury.

  • Recall 11V572000Dec 2, 201169 vehiclesModel years 2010–2011

    Risk: Vehicle occupants may be injured in the event of a vehicle crash should the seat cushion flip up out of place. Also, out of position seat cushions could interfere with emergency egress of the vehicle.

  • Recall 11V546000Nov 9, 2011161 vehiclesModel years 2007–2011

    Risk: Egress from the bus may be hindered in the event of an emergency, increasing the risk of injury to the bus occupants.

  • Recall 11V492000Oct 3, 2011444 vehiclesModel years 2007–2011

    Risk: Images in cross view mirrors do not accurately show another vehicle's location, improper use of mirrors may reduce the clear and reasonably unobstructed view to the rear, increasing the risk of a crash.

  • Recall 11V225000Apr 11, 201129 vehiclesModel years 2006–2010

    Risk: If sufficient arcing occurs, the fuse holder may melt, and a vehicle fire may occur.

  • Recall 10V561000Nov 15, 201053 vehiclesModel years 2005–2007

    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.

  • Recall 10V219000May 21, 2010130 vehiclesModel years 2008–2010

    Risk: In the event of a crash, the seat occupant(s) may not be adequately protected, increasing the risk of injury.
