EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY:WHEELCHAIR LIFT/RAMP
An unstable wheelchair increases the risk of injury to lift occupants.
6 safety recall campaigns, 1 defect investigation.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
An unstable wheelchair increases the risk of injury to lift occupants.
Beacons that do not provide proper illumination may be less visible to wheelchair lift users, increasing the risk of injury.
An overheated alternator bearing can increase the risk of a fire.
The driveshaft connection may separate resulting in a loss of drive. Additionally, a section of the driveshaft may detach from the vehicle, becoming a road hazard. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
During night time vehicle operation, highest level of dash brightness may reduce the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the engine unexpectedly shuts down, passengers may have to be transferred to another vehicle on the side of the road, increasing the risk of an injury. If the engine unexpectedly shuts down while the vehicle is in motion, there is an increased risk of crash.
Two 2020 PREVOST X3-45s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
