SEAT BELTS: REAR/OTHER:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY

Manufacturer
Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc.
What Happened
Your Outlander's seat belt buckle in the middle of the second row might be too close to the buckle on the right side. When you fold down the seats, they could get in the way, causing the right buckle cover to come loose and not work properly.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, the right seat belt might not restrain you in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of serious injury.
Free Fix
Your Mitsubishi dealer will fix the issue by adjusting the buckle cover, installing a new warning label on the seat support, and updating your owner's manual with a new warning label, all at no charge to you. You should schedule the repair when you get the recall notice.
