Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The passenger restraint system (safety belt) does not retract and instead is fully extended providing no security or restraint in the event of an accident,. I have reviewed similar complaints filed and I can assure this agency that my belts have no soft drink spills causing the system to become inoperable . Instead the internal spring lock device of the belt itself is retained in place by a plastic disk and is, in my opinion, a faulty and inferior design.”

NHTSA complaint #10453393, filed 2012-03, 110,110 miles
