These vehicles specify a front axle weight limit that may be greater than that of the hub capacity. As a result, the hub may fail and the wheel may separate from the axle.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If a wheel separates from the axle, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    Remedy, in the NHTSA record

When the button is pressed to release the seat belt, the latch plate can become partially engaged with the buckle, making the seat belt difficult to unlatch. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."
