GM recalls 300,000 Impalas over seat belt problem

General Motors is recalling more than 300,000 Chevrolet Impala sedans because the seat belts may fail to restrain people in the front seats during a crash.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says on its Web site that the front-seat belt webbing may not be secured properly to a lap belt anchor on the side of the seat near the doors.

The recall affects Impalas from the 2009 and 2010 model years. Dealers will inspect how the belts are anchored. They will reinstall the anchors if needed at no cost to the owners. Owners can contact Chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438.
