What the notice says today
The defect
The belt lock of the middle rear seat may not lock properly. (Dutch: De gordelsluiting van de middelste achter-zitplaats vergrendelt mogelijk niet goed.)
The consequence
Not properly locked seat belts provide insufficient protection for the passengers, increasing the risk of injury in an accident. (Dutch: Een niet goed vergrendelde veiligheidsgordel biedt onvoldoende bescherming van de inzittenden, waardoor het risico op letsel bij een ongeval toeneemt.)
What will be done
The vehicle owner is asked to make an appointment with the Kia dealer, who will inspect the seat belt and replace it if necessary. (Dutch: De voertuigeigenaar wordt verzocht om een afspraak bij de Kia-dealer te maken. Deze zal de veiligheidsgordel inspecteren en indien nodig vervangen.)
