Consequence:: If the seatbelt anchorage assembly separates from the j-bracket, the bus driver may not be properly restrained in the event of a crash, increasing their risk of injury.
Correction:: New flyer will notify owners instructing them to inspect their seats for missing welds. recaro will supply replacement anchorage brackets and cover the labor to replace them if any welds are missing, free of charge. the recall began on february 4, 2016. owners may contact new flyer customer service at 1-204-224-6706, or recaro customer service at 1-800-873-2276. new flyer's number for this recall is r16-001.
