## What the record says

- **Product**: VILLA SEATING PEDESTAL - Recall 23E098000
- **Reason**: Villa International is recalling certain pedestals and seat anchorages, part number 400004. The pedestal mounting plate may be improperly welded, causing the plate to separate and the seat assembly to loosen or detach. As such, these seat assemblies fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 207, “Seating Systems,", and number 210, "Seat belt assembly anchorages." A loose or detached seat assembly increases the risk of injury.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
