Prevost Car (US) Inc. — Passenger Seat Recline Mechanism Failure/FMVSS 210
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
What’s wrong
During a crash, the loose backrest and the seat belt may not properly restrain the occupant, increasing the risk of an injury.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What to do
Dealers will inspect and replace the retention pins and c-clips, if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 25, 2022. Owners may contact Prevost's customer service at 1-866-870-2046.
