2011–2013 Temsa TS35C & 2012–2013 Temsa TS30 recall: seats
⚠️ What's wrong
Temsa Global is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 TS35C motorcoach buses manufactured November 2010 through May 2013 and 2012-2013 TS30 motorcoach buses manufactured November 2011 through April 2013 and equipped with 3-point seat belts. The bolts used for the installation of the seat were tighted over their torque specification which may cause the bolts to fail.
💥 The risk
In the event of a crash, the bolts may break, failing to properly anchor the seat, increasing the risk of injury.
🔧 The fix
Temsa Global will notify owners and dealers will replace the existing bolts with new ones. The recall began on July 9, 2013. Owners may contact CH Bus Sales at 1-407-271-8935.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
