What Happened

If the mechanism malfunctions, you may not be able to wear your lap and shoulder belt properly, or you might not be able to secure a child seat in that seat position, which could lead to injury in a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

You should take your vehicle to the dealership, and they will inspect and replace the lap and shoulder belt assemblies for free if your vehicle's assembly has a certain Julian date code.
