Example complaints

“Major accident, swerved to avoid a deer and hit a pole. The airbag did not deploy. I was buckled and seat belt did not get. My head hit the windshield, requiring 8 staples in my head. Had the airbag deployed, I would not have had injuries to the extent I did.”
NHTSA complaint #11242804, filed 2019-08, 51,200 miles“The front passenger side seatbelt has become fully retracted and is currently in a locked position where it will not pull out at all. There has been no accident and nothing happened at all involving the airbag on that side, this situation has taken place all on its own and is now preventing me from carrying any passengers in the front seat due to the malfunctioning of that particular seat belt. This issue occurred while my car was parked in my own parking space with the engine turned off.”
NHTSA complaint #11407802, filed 2021-04, 13,500 miles“My seat belt will not come out to securely buckle in my passengers. I went to the dealer and they said it was the seat framework which is pinching the seatbelt.”
NHTSA complaint #11115751, filed 2018-08, 45,000 miles“Seat belt - back driver side seat belt would not fasten. The metal portion of the belt would not click into the seat piece. Purchased the vehicle less than 30 days ago from carmax, so it is covered by their 30-day warranty. Have an appointment to have this issue reviewed and resolved at the end of this month.”
NHTSA complaint #11206299, filed 2019-05, 12,000 miles“In April 2021 I purchased a 2016 Nissan Rogue. A few times I noticed that I did not have my seatbelt on while driving which for me, is highly unusual because it is the first thing I do once I start my engine. It is the AUDIBLE chime that alerts me. I then specifically started my engine and realized that the car DID NOT have a safety belt CHIME. ( FMVSS 208 S7.3 ) I took it to a Nissan dealer. The technician told me that Nissan DID NOT put a safety belt audible chime in ANY of their vehicles before 2020. I could not believe what I was hearing. …”
