General motors has initiated a recall this morning on their 2009 and 2010 Chevrolet Impala models. The recall has been initiated because the front seat belts may not be able to restrain the driver or the passenger in the event of an accident, since the seat belts may not be anchored correctly. So far, as of July, the company has received a total of 32 reports from consumers of seat belt straps separating from their anchors.

General motors will reinstall the anchors on all vehicles which have the defect present. Alan Adler, a Spokesman for GM stated, “If it occurs, the belt can separate in a crash, so it’s obviously something we need to get taken care of. It separates at the anchor to the lower part of the seat.”

So far there have been no injuries as a result of the defect. General motors will send a mail notification to all 300,000+ owners on October 25th to notify them of the possible problem. Owners of either year’s Impala can contact Chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438 for more information.

General motors, which produces vehicles under the brand names of Buick, Cadillac, GMC, Chevrolet, Vauxhall, Opel, Holden, and Daewoo, is headquartered in Detroit Michigan.
