Kitsap Transit 2000 Eldorado Aero Elite interior (701)

Interior of KT 2000 Eldorado Aero Elite.
Most of the reclining seats are broken. The International chassis makes these coaches very bumpy. The only advantage is the high high seats.
These buses went bye-bye. Made me realize how good we had it with the high-backed seats. The replacement buses are not comfortable.

DEFECT #1 - EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE


Posted on: 2009-03-23
Description
Atlantic bus sales is recalling 42 ricon wheelchair lifts which it installed on certain my 2006 and 2007 eldorado and glaval transit buses.  These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no.  404, platform lift installations in motor vehicles.  The anti-stow interlock may not detect the presence of a wheelchair or mobility aid user.  The pressure sensing switch that detects the presence of weight on the platform was not adjusted to the necessary sensitivity level.  The lift could stow even though someone or something is still on the lift.

Consequence
