The recall concerns vehicles, produced from 13 June 2005 through 9 April 2007 (Japan), or from 7 November 2005 to 17 April 2007 (France).
Risk
The product poses a risk of fire because of sound insulator underneath the front seatbelt retractor with pyrotechnic pretensioner, located at the bottom of the center pillar.
