Details
What's wrong: The rear outboard seat belt retractor spring can disengage from the rewind mechanism, disabling the retractor function, and preventing the belt from fitting snugly around the occupant.
Why it matters: In the event of a crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained, increasing the risk of personal injury.
The fix: Dealers will replace these retractors.
