Issue

Issue:
On certain trucks, the wiring for the seat belt could rub against the seat mechanism. If this happens, the wiring could short circuit and blow a fuse. As a result, the engine could shut off and you might not be able to restart it.

Safety Risk:
A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Autocar Trucks will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to inspect the seat belt wiring for damage. It will be repaired or replaced, as necessary, and the wiring will be routed away from the seat mechanism.
