What this recall covers
- The defect
- Farber Specialty Vehicles (Farber) is recalling various specialty vehicles modified by Farber and equipped with 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.

Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on March 24, 2015.
