What NHTSA recorded

If both the lap-belt and shoulder-belt energy management loops on the front seat belt assemblies release at or near the same time, acceleration forces can cause the buckle release mechanism to activate and allow the buckle to separate from the latch.

Possible consequence

If the buckle released, the system would fail to provide adequate occupant restraint protection.

Remedy

Dealers will remove the stitching that creates the energy management loop in the shoulder belt(s).
