FORD IS SAYING WE HAVE TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSIS, BUT THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE TRUCK IS WHAT IT IS BEING RECALLED FOR. THEIR REMEDY OF REPROGRAMING THE SENSOR IS NOT WORKING AND DRIVING THE TRUCK IS DANGEROUS. WE NEED HELP PLEASE! THEY WON'T FIX THEIR FAULTY PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED MY 2013 FORD F-150 V6 3.5L FROM JONS FRIENDLY USED CARS BACK IN APRIL OF 2017. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN DOING FINE UNTIL RECENTLY (LAST 2 DAYS). AS I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK, THE TRUCK WAS DELAYING W/SHIFTING, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO AND WHICH PUT THE TRUCK INTO FAILSAFE. AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS AND IDENTIFYING THE CODE (P0270), IT CONFIRMED THE SYMPTOMS I WAS EXPERIENCING. I GUESS I'M WONDERING IS THIS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT NEED TO REPLACE (OUT OF POCKET) OR IS FORD OR THE DEALERSHIP NEEDING TO GET THIS REPLACED IF IT'S BEEN IDENTIFIED/POSTED ON THE TSB. HOW CAN I SEE IF MY CAR IS COVERED OR NOT?

MobilityWorks (WMK Inc.) is recalling certain model year 2006-2014 Ford E-150, E-250, and E-350 vans modified by MobilityWorks to be equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon Corporation. The affected lifts are equipped with folding link arms that may have pivot holes that are too big, allowing the bearings to move out of position.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the bearings move out of position, the stowed platform may have excessive movement resulting in failure of the platform mounting. This failure could cause the wheel chair lift platform to fall out of the vehicle when the doors are opened, increasing the risk of injury for the lift operator.
Remedy: MobilityWorks will notify owners, and Ricon dealers will inspect the link arms for damage or for displaced bearings. The platform will be inspected for cracks. Any damaged parts will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on December 15, 2015. Owners may contact MobilityWorks customer service at 1-800-769-8267, or Ricon Customer Service at 1-800-322-2884. Note: These vehicles and wheelchair lifts were subject to a similar recall in 2014. All vehicles that received that recall remedy are still affected by this recall as well.

The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.
Remedy: Cummings will notify owners to take buses to a Ricon dealer or service center who will install supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began January 13, 2015. Owners may contact Cumming's customer service at 1-800-639-5438 or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884. Cumming's number for this recall is 14E-041.

The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.

(Mobility), is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Mobility-modified Ford E-150, and E-250 transit buses manufactured December 1, 2013, through January 4, 2014, and equipped with certain Ricon S series and K series wheelchair lifts, with an optional armored pendant cable. The armored cable may be positioned such that it does not clear the wheelchair lift.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the cable does not clear the wheel chair lift it may contact the power lug and if it does not have a nonconductive cover, or it has an improperly installed non-conductive cover, then a short circuit may occur that could result in a fire.
Remedy: Mobility will notify owners, and Ricon will send the owner a supplemental cover kit and instructions free of charge. The recall began on June 4, 2014.

In the affected vehicles, the left and right rear brackets that support the rear CNG cylinder may fail, allowing the cylinder to dislodge from the vehicle.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the cylinder dislodges, a CNG leak may result, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Landi Renzo USA will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the side arm brackets, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2014. Owners may contact Landi Renzo USA at 1-855-526-3400.
