Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The seatbelt is beginning to chaff and unravel. I have had much older and used vehicles before and never have I seen a seatbelt do this. It concerns me that it will detach completely in a collision if it gets worse. The vehicle is not abused and only has 90,000 miles. This is an ongoing issue and I am afraid it will only get worse.”
NHTSA complaint #10872615, filed 2016-06, 90,000 miles“When I enter car and attach seat belt, at some point during starting out or in the process of going down the road, the seat will start leaning backwards due to the seatbelt being hooked around the lever to tilt the seat back. My feet no longer reach the gas or break pedal when this happens. I have been fortunate enough that it has not been the cause of an accident so far. It happens at any time after starting out or anytime during driving or in motion. Seems to be happening more often the longer I have had it.”
NHTSA complaint #11162345, filed 2018-12, 29,389 miles“After connecting searbelt and moving in traffic the seat begins to move because seat belt is hooked on the lever that moves the seat into reclining position, very dangerous when in traffic and trying to reach break, gas, etc. This has happened on many occassions and takes me by surprise every time.”
