Safety Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has safety belt pretensioners for
front outboard occupants. Although the safety
belt pretensioners cannot be seen, they are part
of the safety belt assembly. They can help tighten
the safety belts during the early stages of a moderate
to severe frontal, near frontal, or rear crash if the
threshold conditions for pretensioner activation are
met. And, if the vehicle has side impact airbags, safety
belt pretensioners can help tighten the safety belts in
a side crash or a rollover event.
Pretensioners work only once. If the pretensioners
activate in a crash, they will need to be replaced, and
probably other new parts for the vehicle's safety belt
system. See Replacing Restraint System Parts After a
Crash on page 2‑102.
Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides
This vehicle may have rear shoulder belt comfort
guides. If not, they are available through your dealer.
The guides may provide added safety belt comfort for
older children who have outgrown booster seats and for
some adults. When installed and properly adjusted, the
comfort guide positions the belt away from the neck
and head.
There is one guide, if equipped, for each outside
passenger position in the second row seat and the
third row, if the vehicle has one. Here is how to install
a comfort guide to the safety belt:
