“Unlike other vw models, there is no way to buckle driver side seat belt without a twist in the seat belt. I took the car to the dealership to be fixed. They could not fix it . They contacted vw and we were told it is the way it was engineered. We compared it with another EOS, which had the same problem. We then compared it to a passat, which did not have this problem. In addition to being uncomfortable, I fear that it will decrease the effectiveness of the seat belt. I also think with the discomfort, people may not wear it.”
