What’s wrong with it?
In the event of a crash, if the seat back moves, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.
Eldorado National-Kansas (Eldorado National-Kansas) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Eldorado National Aerolite, Aerotech, Impulse, and World Trans vehicles, equipped with Freedman GO-ES Foldaway Seats, part numbers 43705, 45467, 48923, and 75719.
When the back seat cushion is rotated from the stowed position to the upright position, the seat cushion may not remain locked into place when under load, such as in a crash or a sudden stop.
