37 vehicles recalled

2004 PONTIAC SUNFIRE -- Certain passenger vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 210, 'Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.' The passenger-side rear safety belt may have been installed with an incorrect nut and bolt.

In a severe crash, the upper seat belt anchorage may separate. The effectiveness of the seat belt could then be reduced and the occupant could receive greater injuries.

Dealers are to inspect the safety belt anchorage and install a new nut and bolt, if necessary. The recall began on August 23, 2004. Owners should contact Chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438 and Pontiac at 1-800-620-7668. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #04V300000 »
