Consumer Description

INCIDENT VEHICLE IS A MUSTANG BASE CONVERTIBLE 2007 ORIGINALLY SOLD IN HAWAII AND SUBJECTED TO SALT AIR, WATER AND HUMIDITY. FRONT AND REAR SEAT BELT RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY FLOOR MOUNT TABS ARE SEVERELY RUSTED ON ALL SURFACES. THIS APPEARS TO BE CAUSED BY SUBSTANDARD STEEL OR INFERIOR ANTI-CORROSION TREATMENT USED IN THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. THE INEVITABLE STRUCTURAL FAILURE OF THESE TABS OR THE ABRASION TO THE SEAT BELT CAUSED BY THE RUST CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD. THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE ASSEMBLIES LOCATED NEARBY HAVE LITTLE TO NO CORROSION. THE FLOOR PAN IS NOT CORRODED, EVEN UNDER THE CORRODED TABS. *TR
