Shyft Group: Utilimaster Walk-In Vans Recalled for Missing Jump Seat Safety Clip

Agency Publication Date: November 18, 2022

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Shyft Group is recalling approximately 206 of its 2023 Utilimaster Walk-in vans because the passenger-side jump seat may be missing a critical safety clip. This clip is responsible for keeping the seat's pivot rod in place; without it, the rod can slide out and cause the seat to collapse. The manufacturer has already repaired the affected vehicles as of November 2022, but owners should verify their vehicle's status with the company.

Risk

If the safety clip is missing, the jump seat can suddenly fall or collapse while in use. This unexpected movement increases the risk of injury to the passenger using the seat.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you own a 2023 Utilimaster Walk-in van produced by Shyft Group.
  2. Verify if your vehicle was part of the repair group addressed in November 2022 by contacting Shyft Group's customer service at 1-800-8582-3454.
  3. Provide the representative with recall number 22-16 to confirm the installation of the required retaining clip on the passenger side jump seat.
  4. If your vehicle was not repaired during the November 2022 service window, arrange for a free installation of the retaining clip through an authorized service center.
  5. For additional information or concerns, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
