“I owned a Lexus 1994 LS400 car. I had a safety complaint against Lexus for producing faulty seat belts. My front passenger seat belt does not fully retract to provide the necessary tension to protect the seated passenger in the event of a collision. Fortunately for me, there had been no accidents so far. This had been a safety issue since the incident date. I did not report this complaint because I did not know this wonderful web-site existed at the time.”
NHTSA complaint #10016499, filed 2003-04, 102,376 miles“The contact owns a 1994 Lexus LS400.
