Transport Canada Recall - 2019395 - FORD

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the cables that attach the front seat belts could be damaged when the seat belt pretensioners deploy in a crash. As a result, the driver and front passenger seat belts may detach. Note: This an expansion of recall 2016-601.

Safety Risk:
A seat belt that detaches may not properly restrain an occupant in a crash. This could increase the risk of injury.

Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to apply a coating to protect the front seat belt pretensioner cables.
