Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The center rear seatbelt retractor will no longer retract on my 2003 Chevrolet hd pickup truck. This seatbelt was used by my child. Luckily we were parked when we discovered the problem and had to move her to the outboard position. We purchased this vehicle new. While having it checked at the dealership, the service department personnel advised that another owner came in with the same problem and after jerking on the seatbelt several times, the retractor began working again. I have ordered a new seatbelt retractor for the rear center position, but wanted to report this defect.”
