What are the defects?
The chemical mix ratio in some initiators used in the manufacture of seatbelt pre-tensioners may not meet specification, which may cause the initiator to malfunction. In the event of a crash of sufficient severity, the front seatbelt pre-tensioner may fail to operate when required.
What are the hazards?
Failure to operate can lead to increased injuries to the front seat occupants.
What should consumers do?
Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by direct mail. Owners should contact their nearest dealer who will inspect both front seat belt assemblies for identification of the production date. If the seat belt production date is from the specified production dates at risk, it will be replaced. If the seat belt production date is not from the specified production dates at risk, no further action is required.
