2020 Ford Expedition Seat belts Problems

“While I the vehicle was on, the seat belt malfunctioned. The issue appears to be the same one described in the recall.

I can pull on it and it will not move at all I will unusually have to take it off and put on again just for the same thing to happen.this happens with front seats belts not sure if back ones do the same I just know I can not put on back seat belt it’s seems they are made for kids only.”

The sound was traumatizing. I rushed to get everyone out of the car. My neck and head were hurting and had friction type burn from the seatbelt.
