What's wrong?
On 2023-2024 Braunability Chrysler Wheelchair Van vehicles, the passenger seat includes a GO-ES Space Saver Foldaway seat with a recliner mechanism. That mechanism is the latch system that holds the seat back in position after a passenger adjusts it. The seat belt anchorage also depends on the seat structure staying locked as designed.
On the recalled seats, the recliner mechanism does not always engage when the seat back is fully reclined. Braunability traces the problem to an incorrect welding process and the use of welding fixtures during seat production. If the recliner is not locked, the seat back is not held the way the seat belt anchorage standard requires.
There is no warning sign before failure. The seat can look normal until the seat back is fully reclined and the recliner mechanism fails to engage.

Year and model alone do not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific van.
What's the safety risk?
A seat back that releases under shoulder-belt load gives an occupant less support in a crash and increases the risk of injury. If your VIN is included, schedule the inspection and seat repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Chrysler dealer.

- Check your VIN to confirm your 2023-2024 Braunability Chrysler Wheelchair Van is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Chrysler dealer to schedule the free GO-ES Space Saver Foldaway Seat inspection and repair that addresses the recliner mechanism.
- Bring the recall notice if Braunability mailed one. If not, reference recall number 24V352 when you call.
- Avoid using the affected foldaway seat with the seat back fully reclined until the dealer repair is complete.
- Call Braunability customer service at 1-800-488-0359 with questions about the recall.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Chrysler technician visually inspects the GO-ES Space Saver Foldaway Seat recliner mechanism lever with the seat back upright and reclined. If the lever does not engage correctly, the technician reworks the seat using Braunability's repair instructions. The source says seat disassembly and new parts are not required. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. If you already paid for a related seat repair, ask the service desk to handle reimbursement through Braunability's warranty claim system and bring your prior repair paperwork.
