NHTSA (USA)High Risk
At a glance
What can fail
The steel cables connecting seat belts to the vehicle near the driver and front passenger seats can bend when sat on during entry. Repeated bending may cause the cable to break.
What the fix does
Dealers will replace the seat belt tensioner assembly with parts that reposition the cable away from the entry path and use a more flexible, upright-angled cable.
