Recall 2009352

The issue

On certain buses, the Q'Straint Max self-locking, self-tensioning, retractable wheelchair restraint system may not properly lock. This may cause the wheelchair to roll forward as the vehicle decelerates until the full length of the webbing is extended. Should this occur during heavy braking or a vehicle crash, it could result in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the Q'Straint Max restraint belts with Q'Straint Deluxe belts..

Description (français)

Sur certains autobus, le système de fixation de fauteuils roulants escamotable autobloquant et autotendeur Q'Straint Max peut ne pas se bloquer correctement. Ceci peut faire avancer le fauteuil roulant lorsque le véhicule ralenti jusqu'à ce que la longueur complète des sangles soit déroulée. Si ceci se produit au cours de freinage abrupt ou d'une collision du véhicule, il pourrait se produire des blessures ou même la mort. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les courroies de retenue Q'Straint Max par des courroies Q'Straint Deluxe.
