Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The complaint here is that a provided safety device, the seat belts, have inadequate webbing length to accomodate larger occupants. I have contacted Saab's customer service center and was advised that while seat belt extenders were available for this model, the cost would be $250 each. We consider that cost-prohibitive to enable use of a manditory safety device. We have purchased other new and used vehicles for more than the last decade such as from GM and seat belt extenders were readily available at zero cost. …”
