²It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed.
²Do not allow people to ride in any area of your
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat
belts
²Be sure that everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using a seat belt properly.
NOTE:
²If the rear center lap/shoulder belt appears to be
locked into place, check to verify that the seatback is
fully latched.
²If the seatback is properly latched and the rear center
lap/shoulder belt still does not operate properly check
and see if the Automatic Locking retractor (ALR)
system is activated.
