Details

What's wrong: Some of these vehicles have front seat shoulder belts that may twist, allowing the webbing to become jammed in the retractor.

Why it matters: When the shoulder belt webbing becomes jammed in the retractor, the belt may be unusable.

The fix: Dealers will inspect for the presence of updated front shoulder belt bezels and where necessary, install new front seat shoulder belt opening bezel kits.
