3 recalls.

18V603000

Date: 2018-09-10. Systems: EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY.

Defect: Turtle Top is recalling certain 2013-2018 Turtle Top Odyssey, VanTerra, and Terra Transit transit buses, equipped with Ricon S-Series and K-Series Titanium Wheelchair Lifts. The wheelchair lift positioning input cam may fail while the lift is in use, allowing the platform to travel higher than the vehicle floor height.

Consequence: 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.

Remedy: Turtle Top will notify owners and dealers will replace the lift positioning input cam, free of charge. The recall began November 7, 2019. Owners may contact Turtle Top customer service at 1-800-296-2105.

Do not drive: No. Park outside: No.

15V526000

Date: 2015-08-18. Systems: BACK OVER PREVENTION.

Defect: Turtle Top is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Odyssey transit buses manufactured March 12, 2014, to June 30, 2015, 2014 Odyssey XLT transit buses manufactured January 15, 2015, to April 22, 2015, and 2014 Van Terra transit buses manufactured May 6, 2014, to June 30, 2015. The affected vehicles are equipped with a back up camera system which may display images from the camera in reverse.

Consequence: If an object or person are on the left side of the screen but are actually on the right side of the vehicle, or vice versa, there is an increased risk of a crash.

Remedy: Turtle Top will work with ASA Electronics to notify owners, and dealers will replace the camera unit, free of charge. The recall began on September 18, 2015. Owners may contact Turtle Top customer service at 1-574-831-4340 or ASA Electronics at 1-877-384-4400. Turtle Top's number for this recall is 15E-050.

Consequence: If the power distribution terminal strip has a poor connection or a loose connection, the strip may arc or overheat, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. (excerpt)

Notes on this record

  • Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
  • System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
  • Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
  • A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
  • NHTSA's complaints API and bulk file list no complaint for this make, model and model year in this data build.
