Recalls for 1995 Kenworth T600b

DEFECT #1 - SEATS

Posted on: 1995-05-19
Description
An interference condition between the back cushion and the recliner handle can cause an incomplete latching of the recliner mechanism.

Consequence
This condition can cause the seat back to ratchet rearward.  Rearward movement of the seat back increases to where the seatback has moved to a fully reclined horizontal position.  Complete loss of back support could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle and cause an accident.

Corrective Action
Dealers will inspect the seat and, if necessary, install a new recliner latch spring and handle.
