What This Recall Means

Component

What Happened
The front passenger seat belt buckle is a crucial part that connects the seatbelt to your seat. In some 2016-2017 Volvo models, this buckle can come loose and break away from the seatbelt bracket.
Risk if Unfixed
If the buckle separates, the person in the front passenger seat might not be properly restrained in a crash, which could lead to serious injury.
