Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles may have had the right rear seatbelt anchor bolt incorrectly installed.

Why it matters: In the event of a vehicle crash, the right rear seatbelt anchor bolt could fail to secure the passenger, increasing their risk of injury.

The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, if necessary, correct the installation of the right rear seat belt anchor bolt, free of charge. The recall began on July 22, 2016.
