Thomas Built under load, the seat belt buckle mount rod can fracture.
The short version
Daimler Trucks North America LLC reported a problem with the seat belts. Here is what owners need to know.
Under load, the seat belt buckle mount rod can fracture. As such, these seats fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
In the event of a crash, if the buckle mount rod fractures, the seat occupant may not be restrained, increasing their risk of injury.
DTNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the seat belt buckle rods, free of charge.
