In a frontal crash where the driver is not wearing a seatbelt, the knee guard may not be able to restrain the occupant’s lower body as designed, which could increase the risk of injury to the driver. Correction: Knee guard welds will be inspected and repaired as necessary.

En cas de collision frontale lors de laquelle le conducteur n'a pas bouclé sa ceinture de sécurité, le dispositif de protection des genoux pourrait ne pas retenir comme prévu la partie inférieure du corps de l'occupant, ce qui pourrait augmenter les risques de blessures pour le conducteur.
