Recall 2016445

The issue

On certain vehicles the lower seat belt anchorage bolts for the rear bench seat may not have been torqued to specification during assembly. This could cause the seat belts to fail to adequately restrain occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the bolt torque of the seat belt anchorages, and tighten as necessary.

Description (français)

Dans certains véhicules, les boulons des points d'ancrage inférieurs des ceintures de sécurité de la banquette arrière pourraient avoir été mal serrés lors de l'assemblage. Par conséquent, les ceintures de sécurité pourraient ne pas retenir les occupants adéquatement en cas d'accident, ce qui augmenterait les risques de blessures ou de dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les boulons des points d'ancrage des ceintures de sécurité, ainsi que les serrer au besoin.
