Summary:
Allied Recreation Group. Inc. "Allied" is recalling certain model year 2015 American Coach-brand American Eagle, American Tradition and American Revolution motor homes equipped with certain Villa ISS powered driver and passenger GSK seats. The seat belt attachment may be incorrect and the seat belt may fray if it rubs along a steel bracket in the seat, reducing its strength. As such, these seats do not conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies." |
||
|
Consequence:
The weakened seat belt may fail to properly restrain the seat occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury. |
||
|
Remedy:
Allied will notify owners, and dealers will reinstall the seat belts using new fasteners. In addition, the seat belt webbing of the affected seats will be inspected and will be replaced if damage has resulted from an incorrect installation. Inspections and necessary repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on August 8, 2014. Owners may contact American Coach customer service at 1-800-435-7345. Allied's number for this recall is 140615ARG. |
