ON CERTAIN TORONADO TROFEO'S THE FRONT OUTER SHOULDER BELT WEB SEW STOP MAY BECOME STUCK IN THE RETRACTOR. THIS COULD MAKE THE BELT DIFFICULT TO PULL OUT OF THE RETRACTOR, AND SOME OCCUPANTS MAY BE UNABLE TO FASTEN THE BELT. IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, UNBELTED OCCUPANTS ARE AT A SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER RISK OF INJURY THAN THOSE WHO ARE BELTED. CORRECTION: A WEBBING STOP BUTTON WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT REQUIRING DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG, THE INFLATOR MODULE COULD SEPARATE AND THE AIR BAG WILL NOT INFLATE AS INTENDED. IN ADDITION, SEPARATION OF THE INFLATOR MODULE MAY RESULT IN HOT GASES ESCAPING INTO THE OCCUPANT COMPARTMENT, PRESENTING THE POSSIBILITY OF BURN INJURY TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. CORRECTION: THE AIR BAG INFLATOR MODULES WILL BE REPLACED.
THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CONTROL CABLE MAY DISENGAGE FROM THE FLOOR CONTROL ASSEMBLY RESULTING IN LOSS OF INDICATOR REFERENCE AND SHIFT OPERATION. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE TRANSMISSION NOT BEING IN THE GEAR INDICATED BY THE SELECTOR THEREBY ALLOWING THE VEHICLE TO ROLL AWAY IF PARKED ON AN INCLINE OR TO PROCEED IN A DIRECTION OPPOSITE TO THE ONE SELECTED. CORRECTION: TRANSMISSION SHIFT CONTROL CABLE RETAINING CLIP WILL BE INSTALLED ON SUSPECT VEHICLES.
A MISALIGNED REAR SEAT SHOULDER BELT RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY MAY RESULT IN PENDULUM INTERFERENCE CAUSING THE BELT TO REMAIN IN THE LOCKED POSITION OR TO TRAVEL FREELY WITHOUT LOCKING. A NON-LOCKING SHOULDER BELT RETRACTOR COULD INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF INJURY TO A SEAT OCCUPANT IN THE EVENT OF A SUDDEN STOP OR VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND, IF NECESSARY, REALIGN THR REAR SHOULDER BELT RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY.
