Chevrolet S10, Blazer: Seats and Restraints

Affects Chevrolet S10, Blazer · 1994–1997 — about 24K vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, the driver's and/or passenger's front outboard seat-belt webbing could separate during a frontal impact having at least the same dynamics as a 48 kph frontal barrier collision. If a separation occurred and there were secondary crash events or rollover, there would be no restraint of the occupant and increased injuries could occur. Correction: A protector cover will be installed over the recliner mechanism.
