On certain Volvo 740, 940 and 960, the seatbelt webbing guide (B-pillar "D" ring) does not meet specifications. A defective webbing guide may break under very heavy loads and may thereby reduce the restraining properties of the seatbelt in severe crashes. Correction: The metal plate of the webbing guide ("D" ring) in the upper seatbelt anchorage will be reinforced for both front seating positions.
A failure of this component (seats and restraints) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

On certain vehicles, if subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/standing water on floor of vehicle), or if the car has been flood damaged in any way, the airbag may inadvertently deploy while starting the engine resulting in possible serious personal injury. Correction: Instructions will be added to the owner's manual advising that should these conditions occur, the vehicle should be towed to a dealer for repairs before the key is placed in the ignition.
