Concern

Seatbelt buckle may not hold seatbelt tongue

Defect, as DVSA words it

Seat belt tongue may not hold in the buckle sufficiently. In a collision the tongue may separate from the buckle putting the occupant of the affected belt at risk.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the seatbelt buckle on the passenger side (x 75) and driver side (x6).

What changed since we first read it
