What's wrong, in plain English
Chrysler is recalling certain Ram ProMaster vans. The warning light and chime that remind the driver to buckle up may not turn on the way they are supposed to. Because of this, these vans do not meet the federal safety rule covering occupant crash protection. Dealers will look at the driver's seat belt buckle and replace it if needed.
