What's the hazard
SynTec Seating Solutions, LLC (SynTec) is recalling certain S3B Base and S3C Base Convertible school bus seats. The seats may have been manufactured with styrene blocks that do not provide sufficient impact absorption in areas around the steel seat frame of the back support. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection.
What to do
SynTec will notify the affected bus manufacturer, and dealers for that manufacturer will install an additional impact material between the re-bond back and the vinyl back cover, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact SynTec customer service at 1-336-862-7509.
