What NHTSA recorded

The involved vehicles were manufactured with a seat belt assembly of the incorrect length. As a result, they do not conform with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seat belt assemblies". A longer belt assembly is required to fit some adult males in all seat adjustment positions.

Remedy

The dealer will replace the existing seat belt assembly with a longer seat belt without charge to owner.
