The defect
Setra of North America (Setra) is recalling certain 2006-2010 S417 vehicles. The doorway strip that prevents a pinch injury from the outward swiveling entry door may not function properly.
The risk
If the doorway strip does not function properly, there is an increased risk of a pinch injury.
The remedy
Setra will notify owners, and dealers will, retrofit a bridging cable to the door control unit that will prevent deactivation of the anti-entrapment strip, free of charge. The recall began on March 16, 2018. Owners may contact Setra customer service at 1-800-241-2947. Setra's number for this recall is 72.4M10699A.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
