What is wrong
Issue:
On certain vehicles, the seat belt buckle for the right seat in the second-row could be damaged when the seats are folded down. This can cause the seat belt buckle cover to come off. If this happens, the seat belt may not latch properly.
Safety Risk:
A seat belt that does not latch properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Mitsubishi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to modify the center seat belt buckle in the second seating row. A warning label will also be attached to the right seat base and additional instructions will be added to the owner's manual.

This Safety Recall Bulletin provides instructions and procedures for the modification of the second row center seat belt, related labels, inserts, and replacement of the second row right hand side seat belt (if needed). Due to seat arrangement of the second row seat back, if the owner's manual is not properly followed when folding the second row seat back down, the center seat belt buckle may interfere with the right hand side seat belt buckle. As a result, the cover of the right hand side seat belt buckle may come off causing the buckle latch to become inoperable and unable to engage the seat belt tongue. |
