Received notice of a recall affecting current model BT50.
Recall is to replace the rear seatback locking mechanism, which would mean it only applies to dual cabs.

Not neccessarily so, I have a Freestyle cab, which has rear
seat belts for the jump seats.
I haven't received a recall notice as yet!

Gidday
Its the
seat latch, not the belt
this is a paste of the notice relating to the Ford
Ranger which apparantly has the same problem.
The official recall notice published on the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) website explains 4258 Double Cab PX Ford Rangers available for sale between May 23, 2011 and February 13, 2012 may have a defective rear seatback latch that may not engage correctly. The defect may result in the rear seatback latch not being secured to the body striker, causing the rear seatback to fall forward posing a safety
hazard to occupants. The ACCC recommends that until the safety recall service is completed, affected vehicles should not be operated with a rearward facing child
seat.
Cheers
