What is wrong

A work of art is recalling 3 my 2007 e350 vans built on ford chassis and equipped with ricon platform style wheelchair lifts. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 404, "platform lift installations on motor vehicles." the threshold warning system may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user in a certain spot within the defined threshold area.

The risk

The user of the lift could be injured should the lift move unintentionally.

The fix

A work of art is working with ricon to correct the wheelchair lifts free of charge (please see 07e095). Owners may contact ricon at 1-[removed] or a work of art at 1-[removed].
