On certain vehicles, a problem with the seat belts could cause them not to stay tight during a side crash. Specifically, the seat belt retractor on the opposite side of the impact may separate and fail to keep the belt locked, creating an increased risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will install energy management loops that provide secondary retention of the seat belt and reduce lateral loading.
