SEAT BELTS

Issued by Rush Truck Centers of Texas, LP · Reported Jun 10, 2015 · 37 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Rush Truck Centers of Texas, LP (Rush), doing business as Custom Vehicle Solutions, is recalling certain modified 2011-2016 Peterbilt 337 trucks manufactured March 26, 2010, to March 9, 2015, modified 2013-2015 Peterbilt 348 trucks manufactured May 14, 2012, to March 25, 2014, and modified 2014 Peterbilt 382 trucks manufactured on November 1, 2013. The affected trucks, converted from conventional day cabs to crew cabs, may be equipped with seat belt anchorage assemblies that may come unanchored when under load. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."

Consequence

If the seat belt anchor pulls away, the seat occupant may not be properly secured in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of occupant injury.

Remedy

Rush will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. The recall began on, July 16, 2015. Owners may contact Rush customer service at 1-713-766-3007.
