Home › Cars & vehicles › Van-Con, Inc. — Seat Barrier May Not Absorb…
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the barrier is too rigid to absorb an impact, the occupants will have an increased 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.
Van-Con will notify owners and will reposition the barrier as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 19, 2017. Owners may contact Van-Con customer service at 1-732-356-8484.
