Recall 1992113

The issue

ONE OR MORE OF THE BOLTS SECURING THE AUTOMATIC SHOULDER BELT RESTRAINT SYSTEM TRACKS TO THE B-PILLARS MAY NOT BE ADEQUATELY TIGHTENED. THIS MAY RESULT IN THE JOINTS HAVING LESS THAN THE DESIGNED STRENGTH THEREBY INCREASING THE RISK OF REDUCED SEAT BELT EFFECTIVENESS IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION. CORRECTION: PASSIVE RESTRAINT SYSTEM TRACK MOUNTING BOLTS WILL BE TIGHTENED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.

Description (français)

Certains des boulons qui fixent les rails du système de retenue automatique des ceintures d'épaule au montant central peuvent ne pas être assez serrés. La résistance des joints peut alors être inférieure à ce qui est prévu, ce qui peut réduire l'efficacité de la ceinture en cas de collision.
