What NHTSA recorded

The elr/alr feature is used to accommodate child restraints. When servicing the rear belt assemblies, wrong parts could have been used which do not contain the automatic locking feature.

Possible consequence

In the event of an accident, the seat belt assemblies may not properly secure the child restraint increasing the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the rear belt assemblies with the appropriate design retractor and tongue assemblies.
