Danger:
Injuries
The diameter of the hole in the seatbelt end mount is too small. It is not possible to fully slide the mount onto the collar of the fastening screw. When the fastening screw is tightened, the belt end mount is pressed firmly against the vehicle body and cannot be rotated. This causes the reduced effectiveness of the restraint system in the event of a crash, increasing the seriousness of the injuries.
Action Taken:
Voluntary corrective action taken by the manufacturer.
