An electrical contactor in certain wheelchair platform lifts may fail, leaving the controls unable to stop lift movement. The official record says continued movement while the lift is occupied can raise the risk of injury. The planned correction is a wiring update performed without charge.

## What the official recall record says

### FARBER SPECIALTY: CHEVROLET 7500XD, FORD E450, FORD F550 and other models

The affected wheelchair platform lift may have an electrical contactor that fails. If that happens, the lift controls may not stop the platform, allowing it to continue moving while occupied and increasing the risk of injury. Farber Specialty will work with Ricon to correct the wiring by installing diodes without charge.
