Seat Belts
NHTSA recall 14V466000 · announced July 31, 2014 · filed by Entegra Coach · 20 units affected
The problem
Entegra Coach (Entegra) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Cornerstone motorhomes manufactured January 21, 2014, through March 25, 2014 and equipped with certain Villa ABTS driver and passenger 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."
The risk
The weakened seat belt may fail to properly restrain the seat occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
What to do
Entegra will work with Villa to notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair the seat with proper fasteners and inspect the seat belt webbing for fraying and replace the seat belt assembly, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began in June 2014. Owners may contact Entegra customer service at 1-800-945-4787.
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.
