Coach and Equipment Mfg Corp. recall 20V348000
Coach and Equipment Mfg Corp. (Coach and Equipment) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Phoenix mini-buses built on Ford E Series Cutaway Chassis and equipped with Freedman Seating Company (FSC) PT Foldaway and GO-ES 3-point Foldaway seats. 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 can happen
An unsecured occupant has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Repair
Coach and Equipment will notify owners, and Freedman will replace the retractors, free of charge. The recall began June 25, 2020. Dealers can contact Freedman Seating Company for parts and reimbursement information at 1-800-443-4540.
