What NHTSA recorded

Some of the involved vehicles were assembled with tongue-end rear seat belt assemblies instead of the buckle end and tongue-end assemblies. Without the buckle end assemblies, the rear seat belts cannot be fastened.

Remedy

The dealer will inspect and replace the rear seat belts, if incorrect belts were installed, at no charge.
