Navistar, Inc.: Equipment Adaptive/Mobility
Navistar, Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Aug 24, 2018 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 631. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2015-2019 IC Bus CE school buses, equipped with 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.
The risk
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 remedy
Navistar will notify owners, and IC Bus or Ricon dealers will replace the injection molded cam with an aluminum machined cam, free of charge. The recall began October 5, 2018. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 18V563000.
