What this recall means for you
On certain 2017 Chrysler Pacifica minivans built between February 22, 2016 and April 28, 2016, the center overhead seat belt stow clip can fracture. When this happens, the seat belt in the third-row or second-row center seat (if equipped) may not be usable.
A passenger who cannot use a seat belt faces a higher risk of injury in a crash. If you carry passengers in the rear center seats, check whether your vehicle is affected and avoid seating anyone there until the repair is done.
Chrysler will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the third-row and, if necessary, second-row center overhead seat belt stow bezel at no cost to you. The recall began July 14, 2016. Contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403, referencing recall S42, or check your VIN for open recalls.
