Are you sure? A pic would be very helpful.

The seat belts in both my Mavericks look honestly the same as every other seatbelt I've seen the past decade, at least. They're not a deep black, maybe charcoal grey. But they're all that color.

Took 30 sec to find a pic from the latest TestdrivenTV Maverick content. Yours don't look like this now?

Seatbelts aren’t part of the airbag recall. What was the paperwork say they did?

Maybe it is part of an inspection and they replace if it has xyz on it?

If they truly changed color, it sounds like the dealer damaged a seat belt and replaced them with a color they had in stock or could quickly obtain.

I like black. If you don't , have the dealer replace them.

Nope, no seatbelt inspection in this FSA. Part of the seatbelt does have to be detached to perform the recall...so it is possible that something was damaged & had to be replaced.

BTW Ford parts catalog only gives 1 part number for the seatbelt assembly, and describes as "black".

Epic first post ever for the OP. What's the over/under on him ghosting and never replying or posting a pic? 🤔
