Recalls

2 vehicle recalls from the manufacturer. Repairs are free. Check your VIN to see if one is still open on your car.

Seats Vehicle recall #19V205000 · 2019 · 471 vehicles

What's wrong: Quality van sales, Inc. (quality van) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Ford transit and e-350 vehicles modified to be equipped with freedman go-es foldaway seat back cushions. The seat cushion May not remain locked into place when under load, such as in a crash or a sudden stop. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 207, "seating systems."

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: Quality van will notify owners and dealers will inspect and repair the foldaway seat, free of charge. The recall began March 21, 2019.

Seats Vehicle recall #19V313000 · 2019 · 2,080 vehicles

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: Mobilitytrans will notify owners and freedman seating dealers will inspect and repair the foldaway seat, free of charge. The recall began May 19, 2019.
