- Defect:
- Spartan motors usa (spartan) is recalling certain 1991-2018 utilimaster aeromaster and walk-in vans. these vehicles were manufactured with front seat belts that do not have an emergency locking seat belt retractor or automatic locking seat belt retractor. as such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 208, "occupant crash protection."
