The issue

On certain buses, the 2 point passenger seat belts installed on the passenger seats located next to the aisle could become frayed from rubbing against the inboard seat bracket edge. A frayed seat belt may fail to properly restrain the occupant in the event of a crash which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace any frayed seat belts. A protective cover will also be added to the seat belts.

Description (français)

Sur certains autobus, les ceintures de sécurité à deux points pour passagers installées sur les sièges passagers situés près de l'allée pourraient s'effilocher en raison du frottement contre le bord du support de siège interne. Une ceinture de sécurité effilochée pourrait ne pas retenir un occupant adéquatement lors d'un accident, ce qui augmenterait les risques de blessures. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les ceintures de sécurité, ainsi que les remplacer si elles sont effilochées. De plus, un dispositif de protection devra être ajouté sur les ceintures de sécurité.
