OFFICIAL NHTSA RECALL
15E024000
Seat Belts
Reported Mar 25, 2015 · Gillig LLC
Summary
Gillig LLC (Gillig) is recalling one Recaro Automotive Seating Ergo M bus driver seat sold through the Gilig aftermarket parts department. The affected seat was manufactured in a way that the tether bar may push into the retractor panel door and potentially interfere with the seat belt locking mechanism.
Consequence
If the seat belt locking mechanism does not function as intended, the bus driver may not be properly restrained, increasing the risk of personal injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy
Gillig will notify the owner, and Recaro will provide a remedy that will reorient the seat belt retractor and tether bar mounting, free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2015. Owners may contact Gillig customer service at 1-510-785-1500.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
