What is being recalled
Cabot Coach Builders, Inc. DBA Royale Limousine (Royale) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Ford Transit-based mini-coaches equipped with Freedman GO-ES foldaway seats recalled under 18E-076. 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.
Why it is dangerous
In the event of a crash, if the seat back moves, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Royale will notify owners and dealers will inspect and repair the seat. The recall began June 6, 2019. Owners may contact Royale customer service at 1-800-544-5587.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 19V-247 when calling a dealer.
