My wife is 5'4 tall, and the seat belt both driver and passagers slides up around her neck and right underarm. Can not keep the seat belts is place. No adjustment for seat belts for height. It is attached to the back of the seats. The concern is if we had to make a hard stop, then the seat belt would cause injury for sure.
