Seat Belt Buckle Switch: All Technical Service Bulletins
Recall 05V302000: Seat Belt Position Sensor Defect
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS:
Toyota/Tacoma 2005
MANUFACTURER: Toyota Motor North America, Inc.
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 05V302000 RECALL DATE: June 27, 2005
COMPONENT: Air Bags
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 11592
SUMMARY:
On certain regular cab pickup trucks equipped with a bench seat, the seat position and seat belt buckle sensor connector pins are incorrectly positioned
due to a wire harness manufacturing process error.
CONSEQUENCE:
In this condition, the seat position and seat belt buckle sensor may not function as designed, affecting the adaptive air bag deployment, which if the
vehicle is involved in a crash, could result in improper occupant restraint.
REMEDY:
Dealers will inspect the seat position and seat belt fastening condition sensor connector. An additional sub-wire harness will be installed to correct the
connector pin manufacturing error, if necessary. The recall is expected to begin during late July 2005. Owners should contact Toyota at 1-800-431-4331.
