What is wrong
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. The seat belts in these vehicles incorporate an energy management loop. This loop is inadequate to absorb the necessary forces that can be exerted on it. Therefore, the vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
Risk
In the event of a vehicle crash, the energy management loop will not absorb enough energy, and injury to the seat occupant can occur.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the driver and passenger side seat belt retractor assemblies.
