Nothing serious, it's to fix an issue with the seatbelt assembly.

The seatbelts can light on fire so it's basically the car going all final destination on your ass. You survived the first accident...but death will find you

I went for my oil change and they told me about the recall for the rear taillight seals. Nothing about the Seatbelt issue. Oh yeah they also fixed my radio issue where it wasn't coming on sometimes by replacing the unit.

Interesting....... The only things they changed for my car was , the center around my transmission and the plastic part on my steering wheel coz it was peeling ... I kind of had to fight for it to do it under warranty and they wanted me to pay for it . The other thing that a bit disappointing was my battery kept on dieing 1 year after i bought the car and they wouldnt put a new battery in for me. I understand it wear and teaer but come-on , its been one year.... so i bought an after market one....

There's actually two recalls, mine is in the shop at this moment for the seat belt one. The rear light seals were replaced the week before. They are doing rounds and calling customers about the rear light seals, but the belts will get their turn soon enough.
The 323 rental sux, I miss my car already. Should have requested for a Mini at least, since those are fun.
