275,000 Subaru Forester models recalled over faulty seatbelt fears
Filed under: Recalls, Safety, Crossover, Subaru
Subaru is recalling 275,000 Forester crossovers over potentially faulty rear seatbelts that may not properly allow for the secure attachment of a child restraint. The affected models are from the 2009 to 2012 model years, built between November 26, 2007 and March 13, 2012. According to the recall summary from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the automatic locking retractor in the seatbelt assemblies of the rear center seat are at fault here. Obviously, if a child restraint is not properly secured to the seatbelt anchor, this can increase the risk of injury in a crash. The recall is expected to kick off in early April, and Subaru dealers will replace the rear center seatbelt assembly free of charge. In the meantime, owners can contact Subaru directly at 1-800-782-2783, and the full summary of the recall can be read in NHTSA's report after the jump.Continue reading 275,000 Subaru Forester models recalled over faulty seatbelt fears 275,000 Subaru Forester models recalled over faulty seatbelt fears originally appeared on Autoblog on Thu, 15 Mar 2012 11:14:00 EST.
