Details

What's wrong: In the event of a crash, the front driver-side and/or passenger-side seat belt pretensioners may explode upon deployment.

Why it matters: An exploding seat belt pretensioner can project metal fragments into the vehicle, strike vehicle occupants, and result in injury.

The fix: Dealers will secure the seat belt pretensioner(s) with a cap, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 28, 2022.
