Recall 14V456000 — SEAT BELTS
| 1 vehicles affected
Defect: Sutphen Corporation (Sutphen) is recalling one model year 2013 Minitower fire truck manufactured in January 2013, and equipped with IMMI-brand L9 seat belt buckles. When the button is pressed to release the seat belt, the latch plate can become partially engaged with the buckle, making the seat belt difficult to unlatch. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the...
Consequence: If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
Remedy: Sutphen will notify the owner and a Sutphen representative will inspect and replace the seat belt buckle, as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact Sutphen customer service at 1-866-287-5549.
