2022–2025 Utilimaster Aeromaster: Seats recall

What's wrong

Shyft Group (Shyft) is recalling certain 2022-2025 Utilimaster Aeromaster Upfit vehicles. The suspension seat mounting fasteners may have been improperly tightened. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 207, "Seating Systems."

Why it matters

A seat with loose fasteners may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and tightened or replace the fasteners as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 7, 2025. Owners may contact Shyft customer service at 1-800-237-7806. Shyft Group's number for this recall is 25-09.
