DEFECT #1 - SEAT BELTS


Posted on: 2015-10-23
Description
Halcore group, inc.  (halcore) is recalling certain model year 2008-2014 american emergency vehicle (aev) type ii ambulances manufactured february 1, 2008, to august 1, 2014.  In the affected vehicles, the flexible steel cable that connect the seat belt to the vehicle on the rearward facing attendant seat may be bent from being sat on while entering the seat.  This repeated bending may result in the cable breaking.

Consequence
If the cable breaks, the seat occupant may not be properly restrained in the event of a crash, increasing their risk of injury.

Corrective Action
Halcore will notify owners, and dealers will replace the flexible steel cable with a sleeve encased webbed belt which allows flexibility, free of charges.  The recall is expected to begin on december 7, 2015.  Owners may contact aev customer service at 1-800-374-9749 or warranty@aev.com.  

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.
