What's wrong?
The driver and passenger seat belts in the 2013-2014 American Coach American Eagle, American Revolution, and American Tradition motor homes are supposed to hold an occupant firmly against the powered seat during a crash. Each belt routes through the seat structure and locks against the occupant's body, so the webbing and anchor points have to stay straight, secure, and free of sharp contact.
On affected motor homes, the seat belt attachment on the Villa ISS GSK powered seats is incorrect. That routing puts the belt webbing where it rubs along a steel bracket inside the seat. Repeated movement across that bracket can fray the belt, which reduces its strength and means the seat belt assembly does not meet the federal standard for seat belts.
There is no warning sign before failure. The belt can look normal until the webbing is inspected closely around the seat bracket, so an owner should not rely on feel or dashboard warnings to spot the problem.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific motorhome is included.
What's the safety risk?
A weakened seat belt is less able to restrain the person in that seat during a crash, which increases injury risk. If your VIN is included, contact an American Coach dealer and ask how to have the belt attachment hardware inspected. Repair will be free at any franchised American Coach dealer once available.

What happens at the repair
Once the dealer repair is available, an American Coach technician inspects the seat belt attachment hardware on the affected powered driver and passenger seats. If the hardware was installed incorrectly, the technician reinstalls the seat belts with new hardware and adds a protective sheath on the retractor side of the belt. The technician also checks the seat belt webbing and replaces it if rubbing against the seat bracket caused damage. Parts, inspection, and needed labor will be free under the recall once the repair is open.
