What NHTSA recorded

Vans were produced without plastic cover designed to cover outboard seat back pivot hinge allowing webbing of front passenger-side safety belts to become abraded or cut due to contact with exposed hinge.

Damage to belt webbing could weaken belts to point offailure increasing risk of injury in an accident or a sudden stop.

Remedy

Install plastic pivot cover; replace belts as necessary.
