SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR

Published February 7, 2020 · Recall initiated: February 6, 2020

What's the hazard

Freedman Seating Company (Freedman) is recalling certain Foldaway Seat Assemblies, part numbers 43705, 45467, 26400, 26401, 82880, 82881, 82932, and 325, and 2pl Bench seat part number 315. The seat belt retractor block out zone may have not been set correctly, potentially resulting in a seat belt that may not properly secure the occupant. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

What to do

Freedman will notify the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the seats, and dealers for those companies will replace the retractors, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Freedman customer service at 1-800-443-4540.
