Seat Belts · reported Jun 10, 2026
Subject: Urgent Safety Concern â Driver Seatbelt Malfunction I am writing to formally report a serious safety concern regarding the driver-side seatbelt in my vehicle. The seatbelt does not retract properly and frequently becomes caught in the door. In addition, the retractor fails to pull the seatbelt back completely, leaving slack in the belt. More concerning, there have been multiple instances where the seatbelt did not properly engage or lock when braking was applied, even though it was securely fastened. I brought the vehicle to the dealership for inspection, but I was advised that this…
