What is wrong
The motorized shoulder belt can travel slowly or chatter in the track and may eventually stop tracking and become inoperative.
The risk
Slowing, chattering, or failure of the motorized shoulderbelt may discourage use of the restraint system, increasing the risk of injuryin the event of a sudden stop or accident.
The fix
Dealers will lubricate the track assembly and, if any systems are found inoperative, the system will be repaired or replaced, as required.
