If the buckle cannot be retrieved, the buckle latch will be inoperable and unable to restrain an occupant in the vehicle.

Consequently, an unrestrained occupant has an increased risk of injury in a crash.

In regard to what to do, MBUSA will notify owners, and dealers will secure the middle seat belt buckle free of charge.

The current recall is expected to begin December 29, 2020, and affected vehicle owners may contact MBUSA Customer Service on (800) 367-6372.
