Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Diamond Coach Corporation is recalling 10 of its 2023-2024 VIP 2200 transit buses that are equipped with Freedman GO-ES Space Saver Foldaway Seats. The recliner mechanism on these seats may fail to engage properly when the seat back is fully reclined, which violates federal safety standards for seat belt anchorages. Owners will receive a free inspection and repair from Diamond Coach in coordination with the seat manufacturer, Freedman.

Risk

If the recliner mechanism does not lock, the seat back could suddenly release when force is applied to the shoulder belt. This movement significantly increases the risk of injury to the passenger during a vehicle crash.
