Recaro recall? Profi SPG XL
Anyone heard about this recall? Recaro have sent letters to customers with a recall notice for their Profi SPG XL seats, made from 2017 to 2022. They recommend to stop using them immediately. Recaro mentions that replacement seats will be available in the Fall 2022

Good stuff, just spent many (many, too many) hours putting these in about a month ago. Probably fine, but maybe not. I am going to reach out to vendor that sold them to me. Thanks for posting.

Wow, i was just about to buy some of these as my only way to get a bucket seat for the car and have usable harness holes with a 3 point belt.
what are our options now? spend 20k on recaro podiums?

Are any regions going to fail you at tech for having these seats? Finding seats that a) fit the car and b) fit you is challenging enough and then add supply chain issues….could be a while before people running this seat have a replacement

I’ve been impressed with RaceTech - and moved to it from a Recaro, with a similar fit. Regular width, that is. Not sure how the XL sizes/fit compare, np but the brand might be worth checking out.

Recaro has done a p*ss poor job of notifying folks about this. The vendor was also less than helpful. I found this link on another site how to submit a claim.

Yes. You're not the original purchaser of the seats, no warranty on used items. Just like if you bought used control arms or used bilsteins or used anything else
