Relates to third row seat seatbelt buckle retention. I just entered my VIN into the NHTSA recall checker.

Got a link for where you checked your VIN on there?

Just got the letter today. Will the dealer inspect it without having the parts on hand? Kind of difficult to not use my third row seats.

Couple of days after it was announced by NHTSA I called my dealer and asked the same thing since I was heading on a 1600 mile trip where my son would be sitting in the 3rd row seat. I told him I knew they couldn’t do anything but I just needed to know if it was going to be safe for my son. The service guy told me he’d do everything he could to give me an answer if it would be safe. Called me back 5 mins later and said the service manager who was a master tech knew exactly what needed to be checked and would personally inspect mine for me as soon as I could bring it it. Took it in the next morning and waited for him to inspect it. Mine is ok. Was really pleased with the great customer service.

Thanks for that. I’ll reach out to my dealer.

If you feel confident enough, you can inspect yourself, use this document from the NHTSA and determine if your seatbelts are safe to use or not.

Got the mailer last week for my '21. Also, my '22 that is supposed to arrive today has a stop sale for the same recall, though my dealer said he hasn't had one fail inspection yet.
