Description of the problem | Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet tahoe. When the front driver seat was adjusted at its highest point, the seat belt anchor pressed down on the contact's leg and caused bruising. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the seat would need to be lowered in order for the seat belt to work properly. The seat belt was not designed to work when the seat was raised that high. The contact felt the seat belt should still work when the seat is at its highest position. The seat belt anchor was connected to the seat and not the frame of the vehicle. The vehicle had not been repaired. The contact filed a complaint with the manufacturer and was informed that there was no extension made for the seat belt. The failure mileage was unknown. |
