Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The drivers side female seat belt buckle seperated into 3 pieces when engaging with the male seat belt buckle. Duct taped the broken buckle so I can use the seat belt while I wait for a replacement part. Hope the belt stays engaged in the event of an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #10759230, filed 2015-08, 51,000 miles“The passenger side seat belt tensioner constricts after the seat belt has been buckled and becomes unbearably tight as we drive. This situation occurs on all road surfaces and the further one goes the tighter it restricts. This has been an ongoing situation.”
