The short version

MEDTEC AMBULANCE CORPORATION reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

207, "SEATING SYSTEMS," AND FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 210, "SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY ANCHORAGES." THE REAR FACING AMBULANCE ATTENDANT SEAT UTILIZES A STEEL FLOOR REINFORCEMENT PLATE ON THE BOTTOM SIDE OF THE ALUMINUM FLOOR SUBSTRUCTURE AND THE REINFORCEMENT PLATE WAS OMITTED IN SOME AMBULANCE BODIES.

WHY IT MATTERS

IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY ANCHORAGE MAY DISCONNECT FROM THE FLOOR CAUSING THE ASSEMBLY TO FAIL TO RESTRAIN THE SEAT OCCUPANT INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY TO THAT OCCUPANT.

WHAT TO DO

DEALERS WILL INSTALL THE MISSING REINFORCEMENT PLATE UNDER THE FLOOR SUBSTRUCTURE FREE OF CHARGE.
