What NHTSA recorded

The mid-position seat pedestal locking pin on the removalbe section of the pedestal failed the load test requirement.

Possible consequence

The seating systems on these conversion vans do not meetthe requirements of fmvss 207, and would not properly protect the seat occupantin the event of a sudden stop or accident.

Remedy

The safety belt retractor will be removed from the seat pedestal and remounted to the floor with the proper backing plate to reduce the load on the pedestal in event of a sudden stop or accident.
