NHTSA recall 14V051000
Seat Belts · Toyota Motor Corporation
Details
What's wrong: The third row middle seat belt assembly might not have been properly secured to the vehicle floor anchorage during vehicle assembly. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages."
Why it matters: A seat belt that is not properly secured to its anchorage could increase the risk of injury to an occupant in the event of a crash.
The fix: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the third row middle seat belt anchor, and, if necessary, properly secure it to the vehicle floor anchorage, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in March 2014.
