Seat belts: front: buckle assembly

What is wrong
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2013 model Typhoon and Cyclone II fire fighting vehicles equipped with IMMI-brand L9 seat belt buckles. When the button is pressed to release the seat belt, the latch plate can become partially engaged with the buckle, making the seat belt difficult to unlatch. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."
Risk
If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
Remedy
E-One will notify owners and dealers will inspect the seat belt buckle, and if necessary, replace the seat belt buckles, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on, or about, January 17, 2014. Customers may contact E-One at 1‑800‑627‑5050.
