Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Hi there; I am tall - about 6' 5 . The driver and passenger seat belts, do not fully cross my shoulder, rather they are crossing my outer shoulder/upper arm. The b pillar is almost forward of me. The seat-belt height adjustment is fully raised. I feel quite uncomfortable and wonder if this should be a concern to me (I think it is!) in the event of a collision; I feel that in a sudden stop, let alone a side-impact, I may as well have a lap belt only!! Please tell me I am imagining this and that NHTSA has approved this configuration!! Thanks.”
