Elgin Sweeper Company Inc.

SEAT BELTS

Elgin Sweeper Company (Elgin) is recalling certain model year 2013 Pelican street sweepers equipped with IMMI-brand L9 seat belt buckles. When the button is pressed to release the seat belt, the latch plate can become partially engaged with the buckle, making the seat belt difficult to unlatch. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

Risk: If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.

Remedy: Elgin will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the seat belt buckle, as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in early July 2014. Owners may contact Elgin at 1-847-741-5370. The repair is free at any franchised dealer of your brand.
