The short version

Autocar Industries, LLC reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

During manufacturing, the floor mat may have been captured between the seat brackets and the cab sheet metal at all four connection points. This could cause the torque on the bolts to relax to below the required torque, allowing them to loosen.

WHY IT MATTERS

Loose bolts may allow the seat to move in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant.

WHAT TO DO

Autocar will notify owners, and dealers will correct the seat mounting free of charge.
