“Seat belt second row (on the driver side) webbing gets stuck inside and cannot pull often times. I'm not sure if the retractor issue. Break - car itself makes a sudden break and release right away while cmbs system is turned off. Same thing happens while there is no car in front or not switching the lanes.”
NHTSA complaint #11205604, filed 2019-05, 10,000 miles“False seatbelt latching during cold weather. I ALWAYS wear my seatbelt. When the weather is cold, I will buckle up,hear an audible click, and tug on the seatbelt, but every so often it will become unlatched as I am driving (2-3 times per week.) Seems ok once vehicle warms up and in warmer weather.”
NHTSA complaint #11505046, filed 2023-02“My daughter was injured when the third row, far right side seat belt malfunctioned, and she became entrapped. My daughter had fallen asleep in the seat and lay a little sideways resting on a sibling buckled in the center seat. When she arrived home the belt was very tight, and would not undo. She tried to get out and the seat belt auto retractor mechanism was working making it harder to move and then impossible. We reclined the seat a little to try and pull her out and this didn’t help. We also tried removing pieces of clothing and pulling her out to no avail. …”
