Dodge Sprinter 3500, Sprinter 2500: Seats and Restraints

Affects Dodge Sprinter 3500, Sprinter 2500 · 2008–2009 — about 180 vehicles.

The hazard

Certain vehicles, with the optional three-seat bench in the second seating row, may have been equipped with seatbelts that were certified to European standards, but fail to comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 209 - Seat Belt Assemblies. Due to incorrect load limiter mounting, the assembly loop is unable to withstand the forces specified by the Standard. Failure of the seatbelt to restrain the seat occupant as intended would increase the risk of personal injury during a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the seatbelt assemblies.
