2024–2025 Roadtrek Westfalia Wave: Seat Belts recall

What's wrong

Roadtrek Inc. (Roadtrek) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Westfalia Wave motorhomes. The seat belt guide bracket may be missing from the second-row seats. The seat belts' movement may be restricted without the bracket. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 207, "Seating Systems" and 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

Why it matters

A seat belt that does not retract properly may be loose and will not adequately restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

The fix

Dealers will install the bracket, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 15, 2025. Owners may contact Roadtrek customer service at 1-888-762-3873. Roadtrek's number for this recall is 2024-01.

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 nhtsa.gov.
