incorrectly installed seat pedestal can cause the seat to detach from the floor, failing to retrain the occupant and raises the risk of occupant injury in the event of a vehicle crash.

Remedy & full details

ARG will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and install a new mounting bracket hardware if necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 30, 2014. Owners may contact ARG customer service at 1-800-509-3417. ARG's number for this recall is 141117ARG.

Allied Recreation Group, Inc. (ARG) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Fleetwood Excursion vehicles manufactured July 16, 2013, to November 5, 2014, and 2015 Holiday Rambler Ambassador vehicles manufactured August 7, 2014, to October 23, 2014. On the affected vehicles, a seat pedestal mounting support bracket may not have been installed according to engineering specifications. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No. 207, "Seating Systems," and No. 210 "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."

What to do

  2. Check it against NHTSA's official lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls — the authoritative record for your exact car.
  3. Book the repair with any franchised dealer. Safety recall work is free, with no time limit and regardless of who owns the car now.

Questions

Does an open recall mean the car is unsafe to drive?

Not usually. NHTSA issues a "do not drive" or "park outside" advisory when a defect is dangerous enough to keep you out of the car — those are flagged Critical above. Everything else should be repaired promptly but is not an immediate stop-driving order.

Do I pay for recall repairs?

No. Federal law requires the manufacturer to fix a safety recall free of charge, including parts and labour, whether or not you are the original owner.

Why are there complaints but no recalls?

Complaints are unverified reports filed by owners. They can prompt an investigation, but many never become recalls — either the fault isn't safety-related or it isn't widespread.
