“Ever since I purchased my 1993 Mitsubishi 3000GT base model. I have had problems with the seat belt. It doesn't retract and leaves too much slack. Thank the lord that I haven't been involved in any accidents because if I am, I am not comfortable with the fact that I wont be sure if my seat belt will save me. I though maybe it was just an isolated problem with my car but I know countless people with these cars and they all have the same problems. I hope this doesn't turn into a situation in which a death must occur in order for the recall to take effect.”
NHTSA complaint #10168698, filed 2006-09, 98,000 miles“Seat belts do not properly retract. Which leaves them too loose when driving. This could cause serious injury in an accident. When the seatbelt is pulled on it does not retract, leaving enough slack in the belt that if an accident were to occur, it would not serve its purpose as a safety restraint.”
NHTSA complaint #10209274, filed 2007-11, 151,000 miles“When the seatbelt is pulled on it does not retract, leaving enough slack in the belt that if an accident were to occur, it would not serve its purpose as a safety restraint. The events leading to the failure are just normal day to day use of the seat belt, nothing out of the ordinary was done to cause this. Nothing that I know of has been done to correct this problem which has been around since the vehicles were produced through 1991-1999.”
NHTSA complaint #10178362, filed 2007-01, 30,000 miles“The seat belt on my dodge stealth r/t twin turbo (manufactured by Mitsubishi, same as the 3000GT vr-4) does not retract and tension leaving slack and it would not perform properly or restrain adequately in the event of an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #10155884, filed 2006-04, 72,000 miles“Hello, I have a problem with my 93 Mitsubishi 3000GT's seatbelts. Both of them don't retract properly and leave slack in the seatbelt. And I'm afraid if an accident was to occur that I would have a greater risk of injury due to this. This is a constant condition that does not go away.”
