Recall 90V112000

Seat Belts › Front › Webbing — Buick · reported 6 Jun 1990 · 51,834 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

OWNERS MANUALS DID NOT FULLY EXPLAIN HOW FRONT SHOULDER BELT COMFORT FEATURE WORKS.

The risk

CARS WOULD NOT COMPLY WITH FMVSS 208, AND INCORRECT USE OF SAFETY RESTRAINTS COULD LEAD TO PERSONAL INJURY TO OCCUPANTS IF AN ACCIDENTSHOULD OCCUR.

The fix

INSERT STICKER THAT PROVIDES MISSING INFORMATION IN OWNERS MANUALS.

SYSTEM: SAFETY BELTS; FMVSS 208.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER CARS.
