BOTH FRONT SEAT BELTS WERE FRAYED IN THE SAME SPOT. IT WAS VERY VISIBLE NEAR THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE. ALSO, THE BELTS DID NOT RETRACT AFTER USAGE. *AK THE PLASTIC HOLDERS FOR THE BELTS NEAR THE DOORS HAD BROKEN PIECES MISSING WITH JAGGED EDGES REMAINING. THE BELTS DID NOT RETRACT IN THESE AREAS AND WERE ALWAYS BEING CAUGHT WHEN THE DOORS WERE CLOSED. THE PROBLEM WAS THE SAME ON BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE. *SC *JB
THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT CAN EXPERIENCE EXCESSIVE BRAKE ACTUATOR PISTON SEAL WEAR CAUSING PUMP-MOTOR DETERIORATION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS CONDITION OCCURS, THE ABS FUNCTION COULD BE LOST AND REDUCED POWER ASSIST WOULD BE EXPERIENCED DURING VEHICLE BRAKING INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL TEST THE VEHICLE'S ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM AND REPAIR THE VEHICLES IF NECESSARY. ALSO THE WARRANTY ON ALL ABS COMPONENTS WILL BE EXTENDED TO 10 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES (EXCEPT FOR THE BRAKE ACTUATOR PISTON ASSEMBLY AND THE PUMP-MOTOR ASSEMBLY WHICH WILL HAVE A LIFETIME COVERAGE). OWNERS WILL ALSO BE REIMBURSED FOR PREVIOUS ABS COMPONENT REPAIR COSTS.
