Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Freedman Seating Company is recalling certain Freedman GO-ES Foldaway Seats with part numbers 43705, 45467, 48923, and 75719. The seat back cushion may not remain locked in place when rotated from a stowed position to upright, particularly during a crash or sudden stop, which increases the risk of injury to seat occupants and violates federal safety standards for seating systems and seat belt anchorages.
The recall began November 1, 2018. Freedman will notify vehicle builders, and dealers for those manufacturers will inspect and repair the foldaway seats at no charge to owners. Affected consumers should contact Freedman customer service at 1-800-443-4540.
