NHTSA Campaign Number: 14E009000
Manufacturer: VILLA INTERNATIONAL
Date of Owner Notification: August 5th, 2014

Defect Summary:
Villa International (Villa) is recalling certain Villa ISS GSK driver and passenger seats. These seats were used in certain model year 2013 Tiffin Allegro Bus, and 2014 American Coach brand American Tradition, Eagle, and Revolution motorhomes. 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 Summary:
The weakened seat belt may fail to properly restrain the seat occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Corrective Summary:
Villa will notify the affected vehicle manufacturers and the manufacturer's dealers will install a spacer and protective sheath onto the retractor side of the seat belt, free of charge. Owners may contact Villa at 1-888-707-7272.

Recall Notes:
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
