NHTSA Campaign #95V173000 SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE

SEPTEMBER 15
1995

2,216,325 vehicles recalled

1995 BUICK CENTURY -- These vehicles were assembled with rear outboard safety belt anchorages that may not withstand the required load. This does not comply with FMVSS no.210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."

Consequence of non-compliance: In a collison, stress can cause the attachment metal to tear and allow the anchorage to separate from the body of the vehicle. The safety belt may not protect an occupant in the event of a vehicle crash.

Dealers will replace the existing anchor bolts with a new shoulder bolt and thread locking adhesive. Additionally, noise control patches will be applied at each anchorage. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #95V173000 »
