Ford seat belt tension sensor may incorrectly classify a child occupant as an adult.
The short version
Ford Motor Company reported a problem with the seat belts. Here is what owners need to know.
The seat belt tension sensor may incorrectly classify a child occupant as an adult.
In the event of a crash, the incorrect classification would enable the passenger air bag to deploy instead of disabling it, increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the seat belt buckle, free of charge.
