Recall 1991066

The issue

NOTE: THIS RECALL SUPERSEDED BY RECALL 92-108. THE FRONT SEAT BELTS MAY NOT RETRACT AFTER EXTENSION DUE TO A BROKEN TENSION ELIMINATOR CABLE WHICH IS TOO LONG AND PRONE TO BREAKAGE. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE SEAT OCCUPANT BEING INADEQUATELY RESTRAINED IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION. CORRECTION: NEW FRONT SEAT LAP-SHOULDER BELT ASSEMBLIES THAT HAVE A SHORTER TENSION ELIMINATOR CABLE WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.

Description (français)

Il se peut que les ceintures de sécurité avant ne s'enroulent plus après extension parce que le câble d'élimination de la traction est trop long et a tendance à briser. Il peut en résulter que l'occupant du siège ne sera pas adéquatement retenu lors d'une collision.
