On certain vehicles, the rear outboard seat belts Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) may disengage when used with certain child seats. If this occurs the child seat will only be restrained by the Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) function. As a result certain child seats may not be properly secured. Correction: Dealers will replace both rear outboard seat belt assemblies.
