What NHTSA recorded

Daimler Coaches North America (Daimler Coaches) is recalling certain 2011-2016 Setra S417 TC and 2012-2016 Setra S 407 CC vehicles equipped with a Ricon wheelchair lift.

Beacons that do not provide proper illumination may be less visible to wheelchair lift users, increasing the risk of injury.
