What is wrong
Braun Ambulances (Braun) is recalling certain 2019 and 2021 Crestline CCL150 Type III E-Series and 2019-2020 Crestline CCL150 Type I F-Series and CCL150 Type III G-Series ambulances. Two of the eight fastening points of the seat belt system installed in the ambulance patient compartment side-facing CPR seating position on the street-side of the vehicle may be defective. Two of the threaded inserts used for the rearward retractor and shoulder belt D-ring are installed too close to a mounting flange resulting in improper crimping of the threaded insert.
What can happen
The improper crimping may result in partial or complete loss of effectiveness of the seat belt harness, increasing the risk of injury to the occupant in that seated position, in the event of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Braun will notify owners and dealers will inspect both seat belt anchor points and if no defect exists, no further action will be required. If the inspection shows the defect exists on one or both seat belt anchor points, your dealer will replace the defective insert(s) with nut plate(s) during the inspection, free of charge. The recall began on March 1, 2021. Owners may contact Braun Ambulances customer service at 1-877-344-9990.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
