Defect Description
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.

Safety Consequence
An unsecured occupant has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy
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.
