Which Vehicles Are Included?
Every model year 2024, 2025 and 2026 Brawley GTS is included. Each vehicle’s VIN is under the dashboard on the driver’s side, and the CPSC lists these ranges for the last six digits:- 2024 models: 005927 through 005990
- 2025 models: 005992 through 006074
- 2026 models: 006077 through 006152
How Does the Repair Work?
The CPSC says owners should stop using the vehicles immediately and contact an authorized Vanderhall dealer to schedule the free repair. A technician installs an insert into the seat belt guide slot on each seat, which reduces the speed at which the belt retracts and prevents the lockup. Vanderhall lists the notice on its safety notices portal under “Vanderhall North America, LLC Recalls Brawley GTS Seat Belt Retractor.” The CPSC notice does not set an end date for the repair.Questions
