Coachmen Concord: Seats and Restraints

Affects Coachmen Concord · 2023 — about 4 vehicles.

The hazard

Issue: A small number of motorhomes were incorrectly manufactured with four seat belts, whereas only driver and front passenger seat belts should have been installed. As a result, the cargo carrying capacity would be incorrect, as the weight of each belted seating position is included in that calculation. This could lead to overloading of the motorhome and cause poor handling or a tire failure. Safety Risk: Overloading of the motorhome could cause a loss of control and result in a crash. Corrective Actions: None of the affected motorhomes have been delivered to customers. Forest River will instruct dealers to remove two seat belts that are installed into the theater seating before the motorhomes are delivered.
