Description of the problem	Seat belt locks up and fails to extend. I believe this is related to existing nhtsa id 10109079 based on my vin. This happened to both myself and my wife while driving my vehicle and it prevents the driver from having a full range of motion while operating the vehicle, and in one case prevented my wife from being able to properly exit the vehicle trapping her inside for a while. A driver being uncomfortably restrained and lacking full range of motion while operating a motor vehicle is, in both of our opinions, a major safety concern as it is not only a distraction but physically impairs the driver while the vehicle is in operation at highway speeds. When i made the dealership aware of the issue and requested repairs under warranty they did not make me aware of the tsb/nhtsa notice on this and refused repair and instead told me to perform maintenance myself in the form of "spray it with wd40" with no further instructions. In the process of "spraying it with wd40" i was injured by a retractor coil spring as ford motor company had covered up a manufacturer warning label changing a critical "do not remove" warning giving instead the opposite meaning of "remove" which lead me to believe this was the serviceable component i was meant to "spray with wd40". Upon opening it the retractor coil spring then shot out and struck me near my eye socket resulting in possible injury induced myokymia. Attempts to contact ford have failed and the dealership has been mostly uncooperative on the issue and has directed me to ford. I still remain unaware as to how the warning on the seat belt assembly was modified, why repairs were refused under warranty when notified of the safety issue, and why the safety issue was ignored when a tsb exists that makes it clear ford was aware such safety issues exist with their safety restraint system.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
