The hazard
On certain 06-07 hatchback and 07 sedan models, the pyrotechnic pretensioner of the front seatbelt assemblies could, if deployed, ignite nearby sound-insulating material. This could result in a post-collision fire, increasing the risk of occupant injury or death. Correction: Dealers will remove the sound insulator in question.
