If a separation occurred in crash, the right and center rear seat occupants may not be properly restrained, increasing the risk of personal injury.

Dealers will install a rear seat center belt anchor reinforcement plate to the floor pan of the vehicle free of charge. The recall began on april 25, 2005. Owners may contact saturn at 1-800-972-8876.
