Commodore recalled in U.S

but heard nothing about them here? a similar thing happened with U.S police caprices had their ignition recalled but that never happened here either. maybe time will tell but Holden must be aware? http://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/autos/general-motors/2015/07/14/gm-recalls-cars-seat-belt-cable-issue/30132281/

"In some vehicles, drivers or passengers can sit on the steel cable while entering the cars, causing it to bend and separate"
The pretensioner is on the inner side of the seat beside the console. The steel cable is the one that pulls the buckle downwards in the event of an accident. Some one may sit on it when entering? Wow got to be a rather large person (aka fatbum) entering the car at a rather awkward angle to sit on the buckle & bend & fatigue the cable. those americans must be large!

I thought it might be an America only issue

Yeah, find a tiny problem with a imported car.
Issue huge recall notice and makes millions of dollars for unemployed workers to fix this problem.
