Consumer Description

NORMAL USAGE OF FRONT SEAT PASSENGER SEAT BELT. WHILE USING THE BELT IN A NORMAL WAY, THE RETRACTORS WILL LOCK IN A RETRACTING MODE AND WILL NOT ALLOW ANY MOVEMENT OF THE PASSENGER. BELT MUST BE RELEASED, FULLY RETRACTED AND RE ATTACHED FOR A COMFORTABLE RIDE. TRIPS TO THE DEALER AND HEARING ABOUT "THE DESIGN OF THE BELT TO DO THIS WHEN FULLY EXTENDED" HAVE NOT PREVENTED THE RECURRENCE OF THIS SCENARIO. IT CANNOT BE DEMONSTRATED ON DEMAND AND BECAUSE OF THAT THE DEALER STATED HE CANNOT LOOK INTO SOMETHING HE CANNOT WITNESS. THE PROBLEM IS INFREQUENT BUT DOES HAPPEN NON-THE-LESS. *JB
