Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural defect in a critical safety component (seat belt system) that could fail to properly restrain occupants in a crash, creating risk of serious injury. Although no injuries have been reported to date, the potential consequences justify a high severity score under the 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported' category.
