Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We purchased the Pontiac Montana as a family vehicle. We have a 2 year old daughter and another baby due in may. We discovered, after we purchased the van, that the rear bucket seats have a problem with the seat belt system that does not safely restrain a child seat. We consulted the pa state police (trooper daniel white) about the problem. He said that the seat belt shaft is too far forward to safely harness the seat in place. He said that he does not know of child seat that would safely work in this van. …”
NHTSA complaint #718447, filed 2000-02“Front attachments of the rear seats had all of a sudden become loose w/o warning. Vehicle was in motion, and rear seats went all the way back. One passenger was occupying the seats at that moment, but was able to avoid injury. The effect of this could cause serious injuries to consumer's childern that sit in safety seats or to any other passenger.”
