What’s wrong with it?
IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, A SEAT OCCUPANT MAY NOT BE PROPERLY RESTRAINED INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY.
CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES MAY HAVE A MISLOCATED SENSOR IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT BELT BUCKLE ASSEMBLY.
THIS CONDITION CAN PREVENT THE DRIVER’S SEAT BELT TONGUE FROM BEING INSERTED INTO THE BUCKLE.
