Consumer Description

DRIVERS SEAT BELT GETS LOCKED EASILY. UNABLE TO PULL SEAT BELT OUT TO APPLY AT TIMES. WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE THE SEAT BELT WILL LOCK AND RESTRICT MOVEMENT. THERE IS NO PATTERN TO WHEN SEAT BELT LOCK AND WHEN IT WORKS. WHEN I BRING IT INTO A DEALER IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO WORK FINE AT THE TIME SO NO REPAIRS ARE MADE. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS THAT THIS IS A DEFECT AND I FEEL IT SHOULD BE ADDRESS AS IT IS A LIABILITY ISSUE.*AK
