SEATS — Seat Back Malfunction/FMVSS 207 · October 4, 2024

The problem

Quality Van Sales, Inc. (Quality Van) is recalling one 2023 Ford Transit 350 vehicle, equipped with certain GO-ES Space Saver Foldaway Seats. The recliner mechanism may not engage when the seat back is fully reclined. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 207, "Seating Systems."

Risk

The seat back could release when force is applied to the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

What owners should do

Quality Van will work with the equipment manufacturer, Freedman, to inspect and repair the seats as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 1, 2024. The owner may contact Quality Van Sales Inc at 800-408-8550.
