For the 2013 Sutphen Minitower. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your Sutphen been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Sutphen dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2013 Sutphen Minitower recalls, newest first

Seat belts

Summary
Sutphen Corporation (Sutphen) is recalling one model year 2013 Minitower fire truck manufactured in January 2013, and 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. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."
Consequence
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
Sutphen will notify the owner and a Sutphen representative will inspect and replace the seat belt buckle, as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact Sutphen customer service at 1-866-287-5549.
