Example complaints

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

“The seat belts are very difficult to latch. It takes multiple attempts to get the seat belt locked in. I had a mechanic check and clean the buckle but it didn’t make an improvement and replacement was recommended. I have never had a seat belt buckle fail to easily latch. I am not the first owner and this issue has been ongoing.”

NHTSA complaint #11460308, filed 2022-04

“I was on dirt forest road that was not a trail, I went through a ditch at about 3MPH and my side airbags blew. As a result the seatbelt pre tension device was also activated and the seat heaters no longer work.”
