- Defect:
- Hickory springs manufacturing company (hsm) is recalling certain ce white sb11-30" series, standard, unbelted, school bus seats, and sb11-30" series school bus seats with lap belts only. the foam in the knee impact area of the lower seat back may not absorb enough impact in the event of a crash. as such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) number 222, "school bus passenger seating and crash protection."
