Seat Belts › Front › Anchorage — Tmc · reported 14 Jun 1991 · 67 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

DRIVER SEATS HAVE SAFETY BELT TETHER STRAPS WHICH ARE IMPROPERLY ANCHORED TO THE STEEL SEAT BASE AND NOT TO THE FLOOR AS RECOMMENDED.

The risk

DUE TO IMPROPER ANCHORING LOCATION, THE SPACER WHICHHOLDS THE SAFETY BELT AWAY FROM THE SEAT BASE IS RESTRICTED BY THE TETHER STRAPSTRAP WHEN THE SEAT MOVES, CAUSING INCREASED SLACK IN THE BELT THAT WOULD NOTPROPERLY RESTRAIN DRIVER IN AN ACCIDENT OR SUDDEN STOP.

The fix

MOVE THE ANCHOR POINT FOR SAFETY BELT TETHER STRAP, REVISE THE MODESTY PANEL TO ADD CLEARANCE, AND REPLACE THE ICP BARS.
