Freightliner Business Class M2: Seats and Restraints
Affects Freightliner Business Class M2 · 2010 — about 39 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the inboard (buckle end) seatbelt anchor backing plates do not meet the Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) design specifications. In the event of a crash, the seatbelt anchorage may not restrain the seat occupant as intended, which could increase the risk of personal injuries. Correction: Dealers will inspect the vehicles to determined if the modification has already been applied. On vehicles not yet modified, a longer seatbelt anchor bolt, two hardened washers and a jam nut will be installed.
