Daimler Coaches North America is recalling 79 vehicles, specifically certain 2011-2016 Setra S417 TC and 2012-2016 Setra S 407 CC models equipped with Ricon wheelchair lifts. The red beacon lighting on the Threshold Warning System (TWS) may not be bright enough to meet federal safety standards. Daimler Coaches will replace the affected TWS kits with new equipment free of charge to ensure proper visibility and safety for wheelchair lift users.
Warning beacons that do not provide enough light may be less visible to wheelchair lift users, significantly increasing the risk of tripping or other injuries during boarding or exiting.
Free replacement of the Threshold Warning System (TWS) kits.
