DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION recall for seat belts, reported to NHTSA on Feb 3, 2004, covering about 3,200 vehicles.
The problem
After performing the ncap test, it was discovered that on certain minivans equipped without the available "stow 'n go" seating option, the right front seat belt retractor assembly may have been improperly assembled.
The risk
As a result, the seat belt may not properly restrain the occupant during certain crash conditions, which can increase the risk of injury.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the retractor assemblies and any seat belt assembly that does not have the stake will be replaced. Owner notification began on february 23, 2004. Owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
