Campaign Details

Component: SEAT BELTS

Defect Description

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 / Hazard

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.

Proposed Solution

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.
