DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE

The seat belt latch plates (the parts that insert into the buckles) for the outboard rear seats may retract into the interior paneling, preventing the occupants from being able to use the seat belts.
If the rear seat passengers cannot fasten their seat belts, they have an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.
