THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM HAS BEGUN TO ACTUATE INTERMITTENTLY UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE IMPROPER ENGAGEMENT OF THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM IS USUALLY ACCOMPANIED BY AN ALARM AND FLASHING ABS WARNING LIGHT WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT RESET. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN DECEMBER OF 2006. THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONED CORRECTLY FOR THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF SERVICE AND THEN FAILED IN FEBRUARY OF 2009 WITHOUT WARNING. THE SYSTEM WILL ACTUATE EITHER WHILE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE OR MAKING TURNS ON DRY PAVEMENT. THE SEVERITY OF THE EVENT VARIES. SOMETIMES THE SYSTEM IS BRIEFLY ENGAGED WITHOUT SIGNIFICANT DISRUPTION TO THE VEHICLE DYNAMICS. AT OTHER TIMES, THE BRAKING IS APPLIED AGGRESSIVELY AND THE THROTTLE IS FULLY ATTENUATED. THIS CAN RESULT IN VARIOUS DANGEROUS BEHAVIORS SUCH AS VIOLENT LURCHING OF THE VEHICLE PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP LIGHT, LOSS OF POWER MERGING ONTO THE FREEWAY, SIGNIFICANT SLOWING OF THE VEHICLE BELOW LEGAL SPEEDS WHILE DRIVING DOWN A SURFACE ROAD OR FREEWAY AND COMPLETELY STOPPING IN INTERSECTIONS WHEN EITHER TURNING OR PROCEEDING ACROSS. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED THREE TIMES BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WITHOUT RESOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPORTED THAT THEY ONLY READ A GENERAL FAULT CODE SO THEY UNDID AND RESECURED THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS TO THE ABS WHEEL SENSORS AND RESET THE FAULT CODES. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE SECOND TIME, THE DEALER REPLACED A SENSOR. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE THIRD TIME THE DEALER REPLACED THE CONTROL MODULE BUT THE PROBLEM IS STILL JUST AS BAD. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT HAS MADE THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO USE. I AM AFRAID TO LET MY WIFE OR SON DRIVE IT ANYMORE. WHEN PULLING OUT OF OUR SUBDIVISION OR MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN IN AN INTERSECTION, I CANNOT BE CERTAIN IF THE VEHICLE IS GOING STOP UNEXPECTEDLY. *TR

Nov 5, 2014

Cummings Mobility Conversion & Supply (Cummings) is recalling certain model year 2006-2014 Ford E-150, E-250, E-350, Chevrolet Express, 2006-2008 Dodge Sprinter, and 2009-2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and 2013 Ford Transit Connect vehicles manufactured January 1, 2006, to October 8, 2014, equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon Corporation after January 1, 2006. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: 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: Cummings will notify owners to take buses to a Ricon dealer or service center who will install supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began January 13, 2015. Owners may contact Cumming's customer service at 1-800-639-5438 or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884. Cumming's number for this recall is 14E-041.
