What NHTSA recorded

The involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seatbelt assemblies". Although the seatbelts in question performed marginally with respect to the 5000 lb. Load requirement, additional testing confirmed that the anchor could fail, allowing either the anchor to slip over the hold-down nut or the anchor to separate into two pieces.

Remedy

Dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace seat belt assemblies without charge to owner.
