NHTSA recall 07V490000
Seats · Newmar Corporation
Details
What's wrong: Certain diesel bus motor homes equipped with driver seats built by villa international fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 207, "seating systems." The lower slide rails of the air suspension can fail.
Why it matters: In the event of a crash, separation of the seat from the seat pedestal may lead to personal injury.
The fix: Newmar is working with villa to install two reinforcement tethers between the front of the seat pedestal and the top of the air suspension free of charge. The recall began on December 4, 2007.
