Mazda B Series: Seats and Restraints

Affects Mazda B Series · 2000–2001 — about 4K vehicles.

The hazard

Certain pickup trucks equipped with seat belts supplied by TRW. It is possible that the driver's and/or front passenger's outboard seat belt buckle may not fully latch. In the event of a crash, the restraint system may not provide adequate occupant protection, increasing the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will inspect the front outboard seat belt buckles and if the buckle fails the inspection process, it will be replaced.
