Seats and restraints
2017-08-17 · campaign 2017-401 · 3 vehicles
On certain vehicles, a mechanism within the Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) of one or both of the front seat belts may be incompatible. In the event of a crash warranting activation of the ELR, the vehicle-sensitive mechanism may cause the seat belt not to lock, which could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace both of the front seat belt assemblies.
