What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural defect in a vehicle seat that poses a risk of injury to occupants, but the source text does not report any actual injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Arizona Mobility Products (AMP) is recalling two conversion vans built on Dodge Grand Caravan chassis, specifically one 2005 model and one 2007 model. These vehicles were modified by AMP and are equipped with VMI/Ricon 6-way power seat bases. This recall pertains only to vehicles altered by AMP and has no relation to vehicles manufactured by Chrysler.

The recall is due to a possibility of a defective weld at the joint between the pivoting plate and the pivoting plate pin. If the seat base pin were to break, the seat occupant may be injured.

AMP will notify owners and repair the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall began on June 10, 2010. Owners may contact AMP at 1-602-385-5988 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
