The issue

On certain vehicles, the front seat belt buckles may not latch properly, even though they emit a clicking sound during latching. Improperly latched buckles would not provide passenger restraint and could pull out at any time, especially during a collision. Correction: Dealers will replace the front seat belt buckles.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, la boucle des ceintures de sécurité avant pourrait ne pas s'enclencher adéquatement, même si elle émettait un son laissant croire qu'elle est enclenchée. Une boucle mal enclenchée ne retiendrait pas le passager et pourrait se détacher à tout moment, en particulier pendant une collision. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer la boucle des sièges avant.
