The defect

A number of cabs were assembled with fewer welds than specified in the upper b pillar near the anchorage for the seat belt. Welding materials used on the inboard anchorage bracket under the cab deck will not meet fmvss no. 210 load test requirements when three seating positions are provided.

The risk

Safety belt anchorage systems that do not comply to theload test requirements subject the seat occupant to greater risk of injury inthe event of a sudden stop or accident.

The remedy

Add reinforcement welds in the upper b pillar and add fasteners to the lower deck anchorage bracket.
