Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driver's side seat belt assembly won't retract once it has been extended and fastened. Will not retract when buckle released. Driver must manually pull belt tight when attaching belt, usually with much effort because the take-up reel is very stiff. When leaving the truck, driver must again re-tighten belt because it will not retract and subsequently hangs outside the driver's door. Was replaced--I believe--about two years ago, but dealer is now out of business and I'm not able to access the service records. Selling dealer is also no longer in business. …”
