What’s wrong with it?
A seat belt assembly that extends further than intended may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain Tokai Rika Co., LTD front-seat outer right-side seat belt assemblies with part numbers 73210-24171 and 73210-48130, and front-seat outer left-side seat belt assemblies with part numbers 73220-24131, 73220-33331, 73220-42221, 73220-47051, 73220-48040, 73220-48052, and 73220-48110, sold as replacement parts.
