Campaign:

87E010000 on 03/29/1987

Component:

Seat belts:front:buckle assembly

Affected:

9,000

Defect:

In stamping the metal parts it appears the worn tooling caused the dimension of parts to change. the press button, due to these changed dimensions, causes the latch which holds the tongue to have less surface area with which to connect to the tongue.

Consequence:

The belt fails to meet the requirements of fmvss 209.also, the belt will fail to restraint the passenger in case of a crash.

Correction:

New latches, press buttons and buckle covers will be supplied to all owners of the motorhomes.
