Details
What's wrong: The 5-point racing seat belt harness, which is optional equipment on the viper may not meet the voluntary load specifications set forth by the fia (federation internationale de l'automobile).
Why it matters: In the event of a crash, the harness may not properly restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of personal injury.
The fix: The 5-point racing harness will be replaced. Owner notification began February 25, 2002.
