Problem Van Hool N.V. (Van Hool) is recalling certain 2000-2014 C2045, 2016 CX45, and 1998-2013 T2145 vehicles equipped with Ricon Baylift Wheelchair Lifts. When the lift's outer barrier is fully deployed, it may not withstand a sufficient amount of force, which could cause it to fail. As such, these lifts fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 403, "Platform Lift Systems." Risk In the event that a mobility device pushes into the outer barrier, the barrier may fail, increasing the risk of injury for the lift occupant. Fix Ricon will reinforce the outer barrier with additional supports, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on November 30, 2021.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. P1528-SB2067 is the number VAN Hool assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 21V799000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
