Reported risk: On certain school buses, the driver's seatbelt may have been installed with a mismatched buckle. The latch plate (tongue) on one style buckle may mate to another style buckle receiver, but the latch plate may not be properly engaged. Failure of the seatbelt to restrain the occupant would increase the risk of personal injury during a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the latch plate (tongue) portion of the seatbelt assembly.
