Vehicle-Specific Recall Note
NHTSA campaign 95V103001 involves the front safety belt buckle assembly on certain vehicles. The red plastic release buttons marked "PRESS" can break, potentially causing pieces to fall into the buckle assembly and resulting in improper operation. If the buckles do not function correctly, the safety belts may not provide adequate protection to an occupant during a crash. A VIN-level recall check is required to determine whether a specific vehicle is affected or still has an unrepaired recall. Owners should inspect the red release buttons for cracks or breakage and ensure the latch plate locks securely and releases properly when the button is pressed.
