Known issues on the 1991 929. One recall is on federal record for this model year. It covers the front seat belt buckle assemblies: the red plastic release buttons marked "PRESS" can break, and broken pieces falling into the buckle can cause it to operate improperly, so the belt would not provide adequate protection to an occupant in a crash. Owners have filed 25 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind that system are here.
