Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Double K Inc. is recalling certain 2016-2017 Hometown Trolley Villager, Mainstreet, and Streetcar trackless trolley buses equipped with specific Recaro Commercial Bus Driver Seat models. The seat belt buckle in these vehicles may become stuck in the locked position, which prevents the seat belt tongue from being inserted and locked. This defect means the bus could be operated without a functioning seat belt, increasing the risk of injury to occupants in a crash.
Double K will notify owners, and dealers will replace the buckle housings at no charge. Owners can contact Recaro customer service at 1-248-364-3818 or Double K customer service at 1-715-478-5090. Double K's recall number is 17E035.
