Summary

Consequence
In the event of a crash, if the seat back moves, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.

Quality Van will notify owners and dealers will inspect and repair the foldaway seat, free of charge. The recall began March 21, 2019. Owners may contact Quality Van customer service at 1-800-408-8550.
