Seat Belt: Recalls
Recall 05V327000: Seat Belt Bezel Inspection/Replacement
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS:
Toyota/Sienna 2004-2005
MANUFACTURER: Toyota Motor North America, Inc.
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 05V327000 RECALL DATE: July 19, 2005
COMPONENT: Seat Belts
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 345443
SUMMARY:
On certain mini vans, in the middle row seating position, the shoulder portion of the seat belt may bind in the bezel trim piece. The affected seat belt
bezel is located on the shoulder portion of the seat in the right side seat of the seven passenger models and the center seating position in the eight
passenger models.
CONSEQUENCE:
If the seat belt binds in the bezel, that extra webbing may exist in the seat belt which could result in an improperly fitted seat belt on a passenger. In the
event of a crash, a seat occupant may not be properly restrained increasing the risk of personal injury.
REMEDY:
Dealers will inspect the seat belt bezel and replace the bezel and clip, if necessary. The recall is expected to begin during August 2005. Owners should
contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
