NHTSA recall 19V247000
Seats · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: Cabot coach builders, Inc. dba Royale Limousine (Royale) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Ford transit-based MINI-coaches equipped with freedman go-es foldaway seats recalled under 18E-076. When the back seat cushion is rotated from the stowed position to the upright position, the seat cushion may not remain locked into place when under load, such as in a crash or a sudden stop.
Why it matters: In the event of a crash, if the seat back moves, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.
The fix: Royale will notify owners and dealers will inspect and repair the seat. The recall began June 6, 2019.
