What NHTSA recorded

The latch plate used in the seat belt buckle was not manufactured according to design dimensions. If the seat belt tongue is inserted slowly at an angle into the buckle, there is a possibility of partial engagement.

Possible consequence

This condition can cause the seat belt tongue to come out of the buckle in the event of a collision or hard braking of the vehicle increasing the risk of personal injury to an occupant of the seat.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect the buckle and, if necessary, replace the buckle assembly with a new buckle.
