The hazard
On certain vehicles, analysis of a side impact test indicated the outboard anchorage of the driver's seat belt could disconnect because of contact between the seat trim and the anchorage connector when the seat was adjusted to its lowest position. If this occurred in a crash, the driver could receive greater injuries. Correction: Dealer will install a retainer between the latch spring and the latch spring guard on the anchorage - driver and passenger side.
