Defect. ON CERTAIN AMBULANCES, THE COCKPIT SEATING SYSTEM ANCHORAGE FOR THE FREIGHTLINER CHASSIS INCLUDES A FLAT WASHER BETWEEN THE CAP SCREW AND THE MOUNTING FLANGE OF THE COCKPIT SEAT RISER ASSEMBLY. THIS WASHER MAY HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED FROM THE FASTENER ASSEMBLY.

Risk. THE SEAT RISER COULD SEPARATE FROM THE CHASSIS FLOOR, INCREASING THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE VEHICLES TO DETERMINE IF THE WASHER IS MISSING, AND IF SO, REMOVE THE CAP SCREW AND REPLACE WITH THE PROPER WASHER. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN APRIL 26, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT MCCOY MILLER AT 1-574-264-7511.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
