- Braun Corporation Conversion Van Recall Effects Many Models
Many people in the United States need the help of special conversion vehicles to get around. These conversion vehicles are almost always vans and usually contain lifts, ramps and other equipment designed to help passengers get into and out of a vehicle safely. The market for these types of vehicles is generally larger than most would suspect, which is why when some of these special vehicle models turn out to be defective, it can create a high degree of danger for those using them and necessitate help from an experienced defective products lawyer.
Unfortunately for many, one manufacturer of these conversion vans has recently released word of a recall of several models of its units, and the details appear below.
Braun Corporation Conversion Van Recall
The Braun Corporation is one of the leading manufacturers of conversion vans, specifically the add-on equipment that’s built into existing vans that allow for those with special needs to travel. The equipment they manufacture includes the ramps and lifts needed to get into and out of these vehicles, and the company recently initiated a recall of thousands of models because of a dangerous defect that’s been discovered. Overall, more than 5,000 units could be defective. Specifically, the recall affects Chevrolet Uplander Vans from models dated from 2005 to 2008.
The reason for the recall is that the side trailing arm on either side of the vehicle may not have been properly welded into place. As a result of this defect, it’s possible that a squeaking or clunking noise could develop. While this noise is not in itself a dangerous defect, it should serve as a warning sign that there is a more dangerous problem with the vehicle. The concern is that these noises may indicate that the trailing arm bushings may wear out prematurely. This could lead to the fracturing or even separation of the trailing arm, which could cause the rear axle of the vehicle to separate from the chassis. This is a dangerous condition that could dramatically increase the risk of a crash.
How the Braun Corporation Conversion Van Recall Could Affect You
If you own one of these models and notice anything unusual, you should report to your dealer immediately for a free repair and retrofit. If you or someone you love has been harmed as a result of using a defective Braun Corporation conversion van, you need the help of an experienced defective products attorney to make sure that your rights are protected and enforced.

I tried a few previous law firms and none would take my car accident case with confidence they could get my anything. Phillips law group took my case and although it took around 4 years to get this case settled as I was in treatment, they never let up with insurance adjusters and they got me as much money as possible. They worked hard for me and advocated for me. Shoutout to key individuals who worked my case nonstop of the years, Robert Ross & Jasmine, you are AMAZING!

Juan Roque has been integral with my legal needs. Communication has been easy. He conveys information I can easily understand without a lot of "Legal Fluff" jargon. I will certainly do business with Phillips Legal team again and refer them to my friends and family.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value As someone who is familiar with the inner workings of the auto insurance industry I can whole heartedly endorse Steven J. Jones and Phillips law group as someone I would want on my side should litigation take place. They handled my case professionally, honestly, and with satisfactory results which I would not have expected without enlisting their help.

Working at Phillips Law Group has been great the 1st few years in I noticed how well organized and run this Firm was from Intake to Settlement the Client has the expertise of a staff member uniquely qualified for the particular stage of each Clients claim and all other Law firms try to emulate what we do here but none quite get it right because they lack one major component “Compassion”. We are a FAMILY not just a group of people/employees. We care deeply about each other and our clients’ we are considerate, compassionate and make sure that all our Clients’ needs are met from beginning to end. That’s because we treat our clients just like we treat each other. Nothing like walking through the office and saying Hello to fellow employees who always seem to be smiling. 16yrs in and it only seems to be getting better.
