Example complaints

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

“The seat belt light/ chime lights up and sounds when driving, even though the seat belt seems to be securely buckled. Wiggling the seat belt makes the light go off. This occurs at least once per drive 90% of the time I drive the car. This causes a distraction while driving.”

NHTSA complaint #10411832, filed 2011-07, 100,000 miles

“Seat belt indicator light and tone will not stop even with seat belt securely attached. This causes a major distraction when driving and also leads to uncertainly as to the air bag interconnect system. The dealer was contacted on 05/15/09 and diagnosed it as a seat belt buckle/pretensioner failure and that this was not covered by warranty and wanted to charge $500.00 to fix it. This is a standard safety interconnect system and should not be subject to warranty issues and should be repaired. …”

NHTSA complaint #10348367, filed 2010-08, 30,000 miles

“While driving, the seat belt lights come on when I am already buckled in. For example, 8.5 miles into my commute today (1/20/05), the seat belt light came on three times over the next 1.5 miles to my destination. I was buckled in.”
