SEATS

Published October 5, 2017 · Recall initiated: October 3, 2017

What's the hazard

Braun Corporation (Braun) is recalling certain model year 2016 BraunAbility MXV wheelchair accessible conversion vehicles built on Ford Explorer chassis. If the driver or front passenger seat is moved to its most rearward position, the seat position sensor may be dislodged, preventing the air bag control unit from accurately calculating the frontal air bag deployment force needed in the event of a crash.

What to do

Braun will notify owners, and dealers will modify the seat base pedestals to provide the necessary clearance for the seat position sensor, free of charge. The recall began on November 20, 2017. Owners may contact Braun customer service at 1-800-488-0359.
