Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
A seat that moves may not properly restrain the occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of 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.
The remedy is currently under development. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk were mailed April 14, 2026. Another notice will be sent once the final remedy becomes available. Owners may contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.
