What NHTSA recorded

These vehicles were assembled with center rear seat belt anchor bolts not properly installed. This does not meet the requirements of fmvss no. 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages."

Possible consequence

In the event of a vehicle crash, the seat belt system would not withstand the required load and injury to the seat occupant could occur.

Remedy

Dealers will tighten the center rear seat belt anchor bolts to specification.
