The problem

Eldorado National-Kansas (Eldorado National-Kansas) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Eldorado National Aerolite, Aerotech, Impulse, and World Trans vehicles, equipped with Freedman GO-ES Foldaway Seats, part numbers 43705, 45467, 48923, and 75719. 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.

The risk

In the event of a crash, if the seat back moves, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.

The fix

Eldorado National-Kansas will notify owners, and Freedman Seating Company will repair the foldaway seats, free of charge. The recall began December 20, 2018. Owners may contact Eldorado National-Kansas customer service at 1-800-955-4236.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
