Freedman Seating Company: GO-ES Space Save Foldaway Seats Recalled for Seat Back Failure

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Freedman Seating Company is recalling 769 units of its GO-ES Space Save Foldaway Seats, specifically 2-place models (part numbers 88335 and 89316) and 1-place models (part numbers 102860 and 102861). The recliner mechanism on these seats may fail to engage when the seat back is fully reclined, which violates federal safety standards for seat belt assembly anchorages. Dealers will inspect and repair the affected seats free of charge to ensure the backrest stays locked in place.

Risk

In the event of a crash, the seat back could release or collapse under the load of the shoulder belt. This failure significantly increases the risk of injury to the seat occupant because the seat belt system will not function as intended.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your vehicle's seating for Freedman GO-ES Space Save Foldaway Seats with part numbers 88335 or 89316 (2-place seats) and 102860 or 102861 (1-place seats).
  2. Contact an authorized Freedman Seating Company dealer to schedule a free inspection and necessary repair of the recliner mechanism.
  3. If you have further questions or need help identifying your seat model, contact Freedman customer service at 1-800-443-4540.
  4. For more information or to report a safety concern, contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
