The short answer

NHTSA received TRANSPORTATION MFG. CORP.’s report on Jun 14, 1991. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 28, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

DUE TO IMPROPER ANCHORING LOCATION, THE SPACER WHICHHOLDS THE SAFETY BELT AWAY FROM THE SEAT BASE IS RESTRICTED BY THE TETHER STRAPSTRAP WHEN THE SEAT MOVES, CAUSING INCREASED SLACK IN THE BELT THAT WOULD NOTPROPERLY RESTRAIN DRIVER IN AN ACCIDENT OR SUDDEN STOP.

DRIVER SEATS HAVE SAFETY BELT TETHER STRAPS WHICH ARE IMPROPERLY ANCHORED TO THE STEEL SEAT BASE AND NOT TO THE FLOOR AS RECOMMENDED.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
