Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While shifting about in the driver's seat to back up and look rearward to guide the vehicle in reverse, the driver's seat belt unexpectedly came unbuckled and began to retract. I thought that I must have been at fault and not properly buckled it even though the normal warning lite and sounds indicating an unbuckled seat belt were not evident. Owners began to tug the belt after latching it each time to ensure proper closure and verify buckle engaged. …”
