  13 unités visées

  Il se peut que certaines autocaravanes ne soient pas conformes aux exigences de la Norme de sécurité des véhicules automobiles (NSVAC) 210 - Ancrages de ceinture de sécurité et de la NSVAC 209 - Ceintures de sécurité. Les ceintures épaulières avant, du côté conducteur et passager, ont été installées trop bas par rapport au torse des occupants. En cas d'accident, s'il y a activation des mécanismes de verrouillage d'urgence des ceintures de sécurité, cela pourrait augmenter le risque de blessure de l'occupant. Correction : les concessionnaires doivent installer un nouveau système de ceinture de sécurité et doivent déplacer les points d'ancrage des côtés conducteur et passager du véhicule. Les concessionnaires doivent aussi fournir et installer des ceintures de remplacement dans le cas où ces dernières ne répondent pas aux exigences de la NSVAC 209.
