1993 PLYMOUTH COLT Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1993 Plymouth Colt has 2 recalls, both affecting the driver-side shoulder belt system in ways that can leave the occupant without proper restraint in a crash. The first involves the automatic shoulder belt's guide rail, where a cable and angled belt guide work against each other over time: the cable can wear through its housing, drop free, and leave the shoulder belt anchorage stuck in place rather than moving to restrain the occupant. The second involves the door latch switch, where excess lubrication can deform the rubber cover and cause the switch to malfunction, so the shoulder belt anchor stays parked at the door pillar instead of traveling into position when the door closes. Both failures result in a shoulder belt that may not hold the driver during a collision.
