Defect. Frontline Communications (Frontline) is recalling certain model year 2007-2011 Mobile Medical Unit vehicles manufactured from December 13, 2007, to February 17, 2011, and equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon Corporation. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.

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.

Remedy. Frontline will notify owners to contact Ricon Customer Service to arrange for the installation of supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on February 25, 2015. Owners may contact Frontline customer service at 1-727-573-0400, or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
