What's wrong?
The affected part is the outboard second-row seat belt assembly on certain 2022 Toyota Redundant Sienna vehicles with 8-passenger seating. The seat belt assembly routes the belt webbing through a D-ring, which is the guide near the passenger's shoulder. That guide has a low-friction insert so the belt can move and tighten in the correct direction during normal use and during a crash.
On these vehicles, the wrong D-ring was used when the seat belt assembly was built. A left-side guide was used where a right-side guide belonged, or the reverse, which leaves the low-friction insert facing the wrong direction. If the pretensioner deploys in a crash, the belt webbing can bunch instead of sliding cleanly through the guide. That bunching can tear the belt material and increase injury risk in a crash.
There is no warning sign before failure. The belt can look normal and feel normal before the crash load exposes the problem.

What's the safety risk?
If the seat belt pretensioner deploys in a crash, the incorrect webbing guide can damage the belt webbing and cause it to tear. That raises the risk of injury during the crash because the belt cannot perform as designed. Schedule the seat belt assembly replacement soon. Repair is free at any franchised Toyota dealer.
