Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Yamaha Corp. of America is recalling benches sold with YDP213 Digital Pianos because some benches have bolts that do not meet tensile strength specifications. These faulty bolts can cause the bench to collapse while in use, creating an injury risk. The bench is black with a cushioned seat and is sold boxed inside the piano box along with the digital piano. The bench model number, BC-104DR(U), appears only on the interior box and not on the bench itself.
According to the recall notice, Yamaha will contact each customer directly and provide free replacement bolts for the affected benches at no cost to the consumer.
