4 recalls across 3 model years
The LADA 1500S has 4 recalls covering 1978-1981 model years, with the most serious affecting 1981 vehicles where the lap portion of the front seat belt webbing can fray against the seat frame and fail to properly restrain an occupant in a crash.
The remaining three recalls affect earlier production and are compliance-related. On 1979 models, one recall covers several missing or incomplete items including defroster labeling, an automatic brake warning light function, rear reflectors, a seat forward-adjustment warning, and updated seat belt use instructions. A separate 1979 recall applies specifically to vehicles sold in Ontario, where tire labeling did not meet the required standard. The 1978 model year has a recall for potential non-compliance with windshield mounting requirements, which means the windshield may not stay bonded to the body structure in a crash.
