1994 FORD E-150 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1994 Ford E-150 has 2 recalls, both affecting vans equipped with Ricon platform-style wheelchair lifts, where safety sensors can fail to detect a wheelchair or mobility aid user and allow the lift to move or stow while someone is still on it. One sensor issue involves the anti-stow interlock, which may not recognize that the lift is occupied, allowing it to begin folding away with a user still aboard. A separate sensor covers a specific zone within the threshold area and can similarly fail to detect a user's presence, causing the lift to move unexpectedly. Both conditions raise the risk of injury to the lift occupant.
