Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The driver's seatbelt appears to be buckled, but releases under load. When inserting the end into the buckle it clicks and looks and feels buckled, but when loaded releases without warning. This occurred with different drivers and released unexpectedly multiple times while the car was being driven. Replacing the buckle end resolved the defect.”
