1990 Ford Escort Seat belts Problems

“While traveling on a freeway at the speed limit of 65 miles per hour, I ended up in a skid on dry pavement. I don't remember how I got into the skid due to head injuries received in the resulting accident. The car skidded sideways for quite a ways and did not respond normally to attempts to steer it. Perhaps the engine stalled and the power steering was no longer working. The car eventually hit the raised concrete rumble strips while skidding sideways. …”

“In cold weather (less than 15 f), the driver's side automatic seatbelt motor failed on mutilple occasions to either retract or advance the automatic shoulder belt. The shoulder belt motor eventually broke entirely (mileage around 60,000 at the time). This defect first showed up when I moved to a cold climate in 1993.”

“Shoulder belt will stick in one position in the track, failing to properly restrain driver of vehicle. Dealership has examind vehicle, and will repair problem at consumer's cost. Please provide any additional information/attachments.”

“Owner states while driving vehicle she had an accident, vehicle hit tree, owner notes that the rear sfety belt on the passenger's side came loose and son wa sthroen out of his seat before vehicle hit tree. Also, seat back collapsed and hatchback came open.”
