What NHTSA recorded

The involved vehicles contain split front bench seats that may not have the correct outboard portions of the left and right front seat belts installed. This condition will not allow the seat belts to be buckled and therefore constitutes a non-compliance to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seat belt assemblies".
