What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary
Winnebago Industries, Inc. is recalling certain 2014 Metro Link vehicles equipped with Ricon S-Series and K-Series Titanium Wheelchair Lifts. The recall addresses a defect in the wheelchair lift positioning input cam, which may fail while the lift is in use. This failure allows the platform to travel higher than the vehicle's floor height, causing the vehicles to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 403, "Platform Lift Systems."
If the wheelchair lift platform stops above the vehicle floor, the wheelchair user can tip inwards toward the vehicle when exiting the lift, increasing their risk of injury. The source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities associated with this defect.
Winnebago will notify owners, and Ricon dealers will replace the lift positioning input cam free of charge. The recall began on February 26, 2019. Owners may contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
